Original Note:
Misleading. Total US jobs in 2024 are approximately 3.5% higher than the pre-pandemic peak in February 2020 - not 10% higher as claimed by the Biden Administration’s figure of 14.8M ‘created’ jobs. The majority of job gains shown are due to post pandemic reruns to work. https://www.nytimes.com/live/2024/03/08/us/sotu-fact-check?smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare https://data.bls.gov/timeseries/CES3000000001
