In just May, 414,000 immigrants (legal and illegal) gained a job. Meanwhile, 663,000 native-born Americans LOST their job.

Since pre-Covid, native born workers have actually LOST ~2 million jobs. All of the net job gains are immigrants.


Hired by Republicans to work farms, construction, landscaping, etc.

teachers are "government jobs" for example.

Should we not have teachers?

Now zoom out a bit and your story changes:


Add in as a % of population and govt employment is actually well lower than historical trends. These R’s sure know how to lie with charts!

That's a jump of 3 MILLION people since the pandemic low in 2020. This is exactly why part-time employment is skyrocketing, up +286,000 in May.

All while full-time employment fell by -625,000 over the last month.

The reality is that many Americans are struggling and working multiple jobs to "fight" inflation.

Why is there such a big disconnect between data and reality?


And you know why? Because large employers like Walmart are cutting hours for hourly workers to keep them under the benefits limits. In many states, employees who work 30+ hours are required by law to get benefits. Employers like Walmart limit the number of hours that hourly workers can work in order to keep them under the legal limit and deny benefits. Why do you suppose that companies like Walmart hate unions?

So, the drop in full-time employment is significantly affected by large employers trying to skirt employment regulations to avoid granting benefits to hourly workers.

Well that's embarrassing. What you have to say to that to the PP who lied w/ a chart? Let me guess, you won't respond. Silence will speak volumes, though.

The guy that constantly posts the misinformed FT vs PT jobs data is going to be pissed. Based on his favorite stat Biden just converted almost 1M PT jobs to FT in only 1 month!

You think it’s a problem that native born Americans are employed at a higher rate now than at any time Trump was president? Guess Trump did a really bad job then:

AI, Work From Home etc will do that.

This isn't new. Middle Management has been on the way out for decades. How is this the president's fault?

I'm loving seeing the receipts being brought.

ACTUAL DATA instead of bogus right wing talking points.
