In a better-than-expected jobs report for President Biden, the United States created 372,000 new jobs in June, while the unemployment rate stayed at 3.6 percent.
Despite concerns about a recession, economists predicted that only 270,000 jobs would be added in June, down from the 390,000 added in May.
It occurs at a time when Americans are less likely to accept jobs, and consumers are spending less money as a result of the greatest inflation rate in forty years and rising gas prices.
The American economy, according to the White House, has historically been robust and has grown significantly since Vice President Biden took office.
According to Austan Goolsbee, one of the previous President Obama’s chairmen of the Council of Economic Advisers, “the jobs data are some of the most immediate, real-time indicators of the economy therefore are the first place we check for signals of recession.”
