President Joe Biden is celebrating a significant victory as the latest jobs report reveals an outstanding surge in employment during September. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, a remarkable 336,000 jobs were added, surpassing expectations and exceeding the average for the past year.
Holding steady at 3.8%, the unemployment rate remained unchanged in September, signaling a positive trend in the market. The president expressed his enthusiasm about the remarkable job gains during a speech at the White House.
Speaking with conviction, he credited the success to his administration’s economic policies — “Bidenomics” — and emphasized their commitment to fostering economic growth from the middle out and the bottom up rather than catering solely to the affluent.
Diverse industries, including leisure and hospitality, government, and healthcare, experienced notable growth. The report also highlights a steady labor force participation rate, which remained at 62.8% in September.
