Biden takes shot at Trump on jobs in critical state of Pennsylvania
PHILADELPHIA -U.S. President Joe Biden on Monday took shots at his likely 2024 rival, Donald Trump, in a Labor Day speech aimed at shoring up support in Pennsylvania, a state he needs to win next year to retain the White House.
"It wasn't that long ago we were losing jobs in this country," Biden said ahead of a parade marking the U.S. Labor Day holiday."In fact, the guy who held this job before me was just one of two presidents in history who left office with fewer jobs in America than when he got elected." But unemployment rose sharply toward the end of Trump's term in a pandemic-driven economic downturn. Since January 2021, job growth has averaged 436,000 per month and now the U.S. is 4 million jobs above the pre-pandemic peak.
