Biden Pops Champagne Corks Over Jobs Report While Forgetting to Mention 1 Fact
< < Go Back
President Joe Biden touted Friday’s jobs report as “significant progress” in economic recovery, but he ignored the uneven unemployment rate, with conservative red states beating out liberal blue states in jobs growth.
When it comes to beating a likely recession, red states are leading the charge, adding 341,000 jobs since February 2020. Blue states hemorrhaged 1.3 million jobs through May, according to an analysis of Labor Department data by the Brookings Institution, The Wall Street Journal reported.
It’s incredible that some 46 million people moved to a different ZIP code between February 2021-2022, according to the Journal’s report of Moody’s analysis of Equifax Inc. consumer-credit reports.
“The states that gained the most, led by Florida, Texas and North Carolina, are almost all red, as defined by the Cook Political Report based on how states voted in the past two presidential elections,” the Journal noted. “The states that lost the most residents are almost all blue, led by California, New York and Illinois.”
