Headed to Texas today to discuss #apprenticeship expansion, #PledgetoAmericasWorkers, and the #USMCA. Texas has added ⬆620,900 jobs since January 2017 and set a new record low unemployment rate last month.
During my visit to the 787 Dreamliner production line in South Carolina, @Boeing signed @POTUS’s Pledge to America’s Workers – an initiative designed by @IvankaTrump – committing to provide workforce education opportunities to 100,000 U.S. workers.
Today, during @POTUS@IvankaTrump announcement, companies, trade associations, and labor pledged to provide opportunities for education and training to nearly 4 million American workers – and this number will surely grow.
Today, we celebrate and honor the greatest worker in the world – the American worker. Watch this video to learn how @POTUS is helping more Americans secure good, safe, family-sustaining jobs. #LaborDay
#Jobs highlights since the start of @POTUS’s Administration two years ago:
✅ 150 million jobs for the first time ever
✅ 4.6 million new jobs
✅ More job openings than job seekers for nine straight months
✅ Fastest wage grow since April 2009
Passage of tax reform is welcome news for American workers, job seekers, and job creators. Tax reform that makes America more competitive will bolster continued job creation and will help increase wages for American workers.
Powerful evidence that @POTUS commitment to rural America is already paying off: 54K mining and logging jobs created in 2017, industries that lost jobs in 2016. ow.ly/mIHT30hEMzS
