The Biden Administration’s Sweeping Vaccine Campaign Leads to Plunging Jobless Claims
In response to the latest weekly first-time jobless claims plunging to a pandemic low of 293,000, Protect Our Care Executive Director Brad Woodhouse issued the following statement:
“Today’s news of weekly jobless claims reaching a pandemic-era low affirms President Biden’s policies to boost the economy are working. By passing the American Rescue Plan, Democrats delivered direct stimulus checks, housing assistance and monthly child tax credit payments to families, billions in state and local aid to keep essential workers on the job, and robust funding for vaccine distribution to deliver a successful vaccine rollout.
“By now promoting vaccine mandates and booster shots, the Biden administration continues to work to get shots in arms so even more people can go back to work and more American families are safe. With hundreds of thousands of Americans getting vaccinated every day and the economy bouncing back to pre-pandemic levels, it is clear that better days are ahead thanks to the leadership of President Biden and Democrats in Congress.”
