President Joe Biden was at the Tri-State Labor Day Parade on Monday, speaking about the importance of unions. The Democratic president likes to say he’s the most pro-union president in history.
"As we head into Labor Day, we ought to take a step back and take note of the fact that America is now in one of the strongest job-creating periods in our history," Biden said Friday from the Rose Garden, where he spoke after the news that America’s employers in August, evidence of a slowing but still-resilient labor market despite the high interest rates the Federal Reserve has imposed.
Friday’s report from the Labor Department also showed that the unemployment rate rose from 3.5% to 3.8%, the highest level since February 2022 though still low by historical standards. But the rate rose for an encouraging reason: 736,000 people began looking for work last month, the most since January, and not all of them found jobs right away. Only people who are actively looking for a job are counted as unemployed.
