Almost 14 million jobs have been created since Joe Biden became president.
More growth than under any president. Ever.
How did he do this? Well one way is through the Good Jobs Initiative. His Department of labor embedded job quality and equity incentives into nearly $100 billion in Bipartisan Infrastructure Law funds. And those investments help create good quality jobs that expand pathways to the middle class, particularly in communities that need them the most.
The availability of good jobs has been a part of Biden’s investing in America agenda which has created jobs through historic legislation he signed including the American Rescue Plan, Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, CHIPS and Science Act, and Inflation Reduction Act. All of those had job creation embedded into them.
Experts agree:
Policies Boosted the Labor Market Recovery in 2021
Were President Biden’s policies the cause of this boom? This much is clear: The data show that his fiscal policies directly accelerated job growth, with the ARPA leading to the creation of 1 million to more than 4 million additional jobs since it went into effect.
The first year of Biden’s presidency was historic for job creation — the labor market added 6.7 million jobs in the first 12 months of his administration. No other president since World War II saw such strong growth in their first—or any—year in office
and this continued →
The U.S. economy added 4.5 million jobs in 2022, the second-strongest year for job growth in the past 40 years (after 2021), and a testament to the success of pandemic relief and recovery measures.
and continued -->
The economy created 2.7 million new jobs in 2023—a year when the unemployment rate was consistently below 4 percent—more jobs than during any year of the prior Administration.
Is there still more work to be done? 100%! Lots more work. But Biden did more than many people guessed could be done. And he deserves a lot of credit. AND he deserves to be re-elected.
