We Do Better When the Middle Class Does Better


In this week's address, the President highlighted that six years after the Great Recession, thanks to the hard work of the American people and the President's policies, our economy has come back further and faster than any other nation on Earth. With 10.3 million private-sector jobs added over 55 straight months, America's businesses have extended the longest streak of private-sector job gains on record.

But even with this progress, too many Americans have yet to feel the benefits. The President reiterated the vision he set out earlier this week for steps that can lay a new foundation for stronger growth, rising wages, and expanded economic opportunity for middle-class families.

10.3 Million Jobs

Yesterday, the Bureau of Labor Statistics released a report that shows just how far our economy has come since the Great Recession.

Adding 236,000 jobs in September, America's businesses have now seen positive job growth for 55 straight months -- the longest streak of private-sector job gains on record. And the overall unemployment rate fell to 5.9 percent -- the lowest it\u2019s been since July 2008.

The data underscores that six years after the Great Recession -- thanks to the hard work of the American people and in part to the policies the President has pursued -- our economy has bounced back more strongly than most others around the world.
