Washington, DC - President Trump at Presentation of the Congressional Medal of Honor to Staff Sergeant David Bellavia, U.S. Army:

Washington, DC - Our surging economy has brought with it abundant job opportunities. Tax cuts and deregulation have boosted job creation. Since President Donald Trump’s inauguration in January 2017, 5.4 million jobs have been created and more people are working in America than ever before. The unemployment rate has dropped to 3.6%, the lowest rate since 1969, and last year we saw the highest share of people entering our labor force from the sidelines since we started tracking in the early 1990s. Through the White House’s Pledge to America’s Workers, job creators around the nation have committed to nearly 10 million training, upskilling or reskilling opportunities for American students and workers.

Washington, DC - We’re lifting up forgotten communities, creating exciting new opportunities, and helping every American find their path to the American Dream." ~ President Donald J. Trump
