STATEMENT ON UNEMPLOYMENT INSURANCE CLAIMS FROM BUILDING BACK TOGETHER EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR DANIELLE MELFI

“Today, unemployment insurance claims again dropped to a new pandemic low and the four-week average of claims also dropped to a pandemic low, showing that President Biden’s economic plans are working for the American people. While there’s still work ahead our economy is recovering at an unprecedented pace due to President Biden’s leadership in getting shots in arms, relief to families, and American workers back on the job.

President Biden’s policies have jump-started the economy, creating more than 4 million jobs since the President took office, and he’s just getting started. The President’s Build Back Better Agenda will lower costs and cut taxes for everyday families while putting millions of Americans to work rebuilding our care economy, restoring America’s infrastructure, and tackling the climate crisis. It’s time for Congress to deliver on the President’s agenda so that we can build our nation back better for all Americans.”
