Presidential Transition Team Responds to Weak November Jobs Report
Only one can be true: either the liberal mainstream media are incapable of reading a basic jobs report, or they’re incapable of telling the truth about the government, regardless of who is in charge.
While they parrot the Democratic Party’s falsehoods that the November jobs report was “good news,” the underlying fact that went unreported is that labor participation has fallen to its lowest level since 1978. Meanwhile, manufacturing jobs continue to flee the country at an alarming rate.
The Presidential Transition Team’s chief economic adviser, Peter Navarro, issued the following statement in response to the Obama Administration’s November Jobs Report:
The November jobs report showing a decline in the labor force participation rate further demonstrates an urgent need for President-elect Trump’s America First economic plan. We have not seen levels this low since 1978. The 4,000 manufacturing jobs that disappeared last month come on top of the over 300,000 that have been lost under President Obama.
Even before taking office, President-elect Trump has proven that protecting and creating jobs will be among his highest priorities as president. His determination to save 1,000 Carrier manufacturing jobs in Indiana, announced this week, is just a preview of his agenda of prosperity for all.
Furthermore, the Cabinet picks of Steve Mnuchin for Treasury Secretary and Wilbur Ross for the Department of Commerce signal a seismic and transformative shift in trade policy—one that works for American workers and domestic manufacturers, not for the multinational corporations shipping jobs offshore. {eoa}
