“For the FOURTH month in a row, jobs numbers have beat market expectations with nearly 150,000 good jobs created in June. American-born workers have accounted for ALL of the job gains since President Trump took office and wages continue to rise. The economy is booming again and it will only get better when the One, Big, Beautiful Bill is passed and implemented.” —White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt

Under President Donald J. Trump’s leadership, the economy had another stellar month — with wage increases for hardworking Americans, a falling unemployment rate, and a labor market that’s once again benefitting American citizens.

In June, the U.S. added 147,000 jobs — beating expectations for the fourth straight month.
The April and May numbers were revised 16,000 HIGHER.
The unemployment rate fell to 4.1% — also beating expectations.
Native-born workers now account for ALL job gains since January.
- Foreign-born employment has fallen -543,000 since January, while native-born employment has increased by 2,079,000.
- For the same months last year, foreign-born workers accounted for roughly 48% of new jobs.
Wages for working Americans continue to rise — with average hourly earnings up by close to 4% over the past year.

Here’s what they’re saying:

Fox Business Network’s Cheryl Casone: “You do have a strong employment picture … we have NOT seen inflation rise. In fact, inflation has been going down and going down and going down … prices are lower than they were for July 4th last year.”
Job Creators Network CEO Alfredo Ortiz: “Hats off to President Trump because this three-legged stool of his has really been powerful: The trade, taxes, and regulations together. It’s all about Jobs! Jobs! Jobs!”
CNN’s Matt E gan: “This jobs market is like the Energizer Bunny. Every single time we expect it to run out of steam, it just keeps going and going.”
Bloomberg’s Jonathan Ferro: “This is good news; much better than expected. An upside surprise on headline payrolls … jobless claims — MUCH LOWER than expected. Across the board here in the labor market, this is a pretty solid read!”
