The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) October jobs report once again highlights how Kamalanomics continues to crush Americans. The abysmal report missed expectations with only 12,000 jobs created last month out of an expected 100,000 and nearly 50,000 manufacturing jobs lost. The unemployment rate remains high at 4.1%. October posted the smallest gain since 2020. The failed Far Left economic policies of the Biden-Harris Administration have crippled a once thriving economy.
