RNC Statement on Worst Jobs Report of Biden's Presidency

WASHINGTON - Today, Republican National Committee (RNC) Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel released the following statement on the worst jobs report of Biden’s presidency:

“On the same day of the worst jobs report of Joe Biden's presidency, he is fighting at the Supreme Court for his unconstitutional vaccine mandate that would force small businesses to fire workers. Biden and the Democrats do not care about the harm they're causing Americans – from rapidly rising prices on everything from gas to groceries to job-killing mandates, to a pandemic they promised to shut down. Joe Biden doesn't care and the American people are paying the price.”

Key Takeaways:

• Today’s jobs report provides little consolation to the 3.6 million Americans who lost their job during the pandemic and have yet to get it back.
• The economy added back just 199,000 jobs in December, less than half the jobs economists had predicted.
  • This is the worst jobs report of the year – December saw the fewest jobs return since Biden took office.
  • In four of the past five months, the economy has added far fewer jobs than expected.
