Groundwork’s Bilal Baydoun Previews August Jobs Report

Ahead of tomorrow’s Jobs Report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics – which is expected to show unemployment near historic lows – Groundwork’s Director of Policy and Research Bilal Baydoun released the following statement:

“The record job gains and strikes making waves across the economy are no accident. Public investment has powered our economy over the last two years by creating jobs and growing our economy, enabling workers to demand more.

“With inflation in retreat and unemployment at record lows, the Fed must change course and focus on driving more gains for workers and families, not blaming them for inflation while corporations rake in record profits.”
