RNC Statement on Republican States Leading November State Jobs Report

17 of the top 20 states for jobs recovered since the pandemic began are led by Republican governors, as are 16 of the top 20 states with the lowest unemployment rates

WASHINGTON - Today, Republican National Committee (RNC) Chairman Ronna McDaniel released the following statement on the November state jobs numbers, confirming Republican-led states continue to lead the economic recovery:
 
“Republican leadership delivers. While Joe Biden and Democrats continue to lie to the American people about their failed Build Back Broke agenda, Republican-led states continue to lead our economic recovery by getting Americans back to work. Americans see through Biden’s empty promises for what they are – a massive tax and spend spree that will raise taxes on the middle class and continue to send prices skyrocketing. In 2022, voters will reject Democrats’ failed agenda and vote for Republican leadership up and down the ballot.”

Key Takeaways:

• 17 of the top 20 states for jobs recovered since the coronavirus pandemic began are led by Republican governors, and 18 of the top 20 states have Republican-controlled legislatures.
  • The top 13 states for jobs recovered are all led by Republicans.
• Out of the top 20 states with the lowest unemployment rates, 16 are led by Republican governors and 17 have Republican-controlled legislatures.
• The nine states with the lowest unemployment rates are all led by Republicans.
