On the recordMay 7, 2019
Last Friday's economic numbers continue to show that policies championed by the President and Republicans are helping the American people succeed: The economy added an incredible 263,000 jobs in April; More than 5.8 million jobs have been created since the election; The unemployment rate fell to 3.6 percent in April, the lowest since December 1969; The employment rate for women is the lowest rate since 1953; The veterans' unemployment rate fell to 2.3 percent, the lowest rate on record; The employment rate for Americans with a disability fell to the lowest rate on record; Average hourly earnings rose by 3.2 percent over 12 months. Before 2018, wage gains had not reached 3 percent since April 2009. In conclusion, God bless our troops, and we will never forget September the 11th in the global war on terrorism. ____________________
