As Americans across the nation mark Labor Day, President Trump stands as the champion of the American Worker. From surging native-born employment and rising blue-collar wages to innovative workforce initiatives like expanded apprenticeships and trade school funding, the Trump Administration is reversing decades of neglect and finally putting American Workers first.
President Trump is overseeing a private sector boom.
- President Trump has created over half a million new jobs since he took office — all of them coming in the private sector.
- Employment for native-born Americans has grown by 2.4+ million since January, accounting for ALL net job gains in President Trump’s second term.

President Trump is finally putting the American Worker first.
