Joe Biden’s abysmal six-month economic report card

In mid-July, President Joe Biden bragged about good economic and jobs news.

But the July jobs report has shown slower changes in unemployment numbers.

Why? Because the government continued to pay people to stay home.

From GOP Ways and Means: “With the July jobs report showing movement with lower unemployment and revisions upward of past months, Ways and Means Republican Leader Rep. Kevin Brady (R-TX) released the following statement:

‘Thanks in part to Republican governors removing the Biden work barrier that pays the jobless more to stay home than to work, the July jobs report finally met expectations—although the President’s jobs deficit still remains high at 298,000 and Main Street businesses are still struggling to find workers.

‘The labor force participation rate still hasn’t improved in 2021, which is a red flag for tepid growth ahead. And while we will get the full data in mid-August, it appears rising prices will continue to beat wage growth for a seventh consecutive month, meaning inflation under President Biden will continue to shrink the purchasing power of families.”
