President JoeBiden hailed the latest unemployment numbers as vindicating his economic policies, while Republicans suggested GOP-controlled statehouses deserved the credit.
Biden, who has been repeating that the economy"is on the move," reiterated people are"getting back to work in every corner of the country." "Right now, 17 states are at or tied with the lowest unemployment rate they’ve ever had — and 20 states have jobless rates below 3%," he said Friday."Over the last year, the unemployment rate dropped in every state, and many states have reached historic lows.
"There’s still more work to do to build on this recovery and bring down costs for working families — and my administration is working on that every day — but we can’t lose sight of how far, and how quickly, we’ve come," he said. "Out of the top 25 states with the lowest unemployment rates, 20 are led by Republican governors and 21 have Republican-controlled legislatures," the RNC said. Seventeen"states hit new record low unemployment rates, 13 of which have Republican governors and 16 have Republican-controlled legislatures."
