Original Note:
The 776k manufacturing jobs created total is missing important context. The February 2024 figure is 184k higher than the February 2020 peak from before COVID-19 forced massive layoffs. It’s more accurate to say 592k manufacturing jobs were recovered and 184k created. https://data.bls.gov/timeseries/CES3000000001
