Republican-led states do it best

Rapid Response

As Biden continues to squander the economic recovery he inherited, Republicans are leading the way.

Republican-led states are bringing jobs back FASTER:
  • 16 of the top 20 states for jobs recovered from the pandemic are led by Republican governors.
    • The top NINE states are all led by Republicans.
Republican-led states are seeing a job boom:
  • 16 of the top 20 states with the lowest unemployment rates are led by Republican governors.
    • The top TEN states are all led by Republicans.
  • On average, Republican-led states have an unemployment rate of just 3.4 percent – compared to 4.9 percent in Democrat-led states.
  • All 12 states with new record lows in unemployment have Republican-controlled legislatures.
  • The seven states with the highest unemployment rates are all led by Democrat governors.

Meanwhile, Americans are paying more for just about everything and family incomes are lagging behind the rising cost of living as Democrats continue to push the same failed policies.

There’s a reason people are leaving Democrat-run states in droves: Democrat policies do not work.
