WASHINGTON – U.S. Secretary of Labor Lori Chavez-DeRemer issued the following statement regarding the May 2025 Employment Situation Report:“Today’s jobs report demonstrates yet again that we are making a remarkable economic comeback. With 139,000 jobs created in May, President Trump continues to deliver on his promise to put American workers and businesses first – beating expectations for three months in a row. “For too long, burdensome regulations and failed policies sold out blue-collar workers and shipped mortgage-paying jobs overseas. Now, thanks to President Trump’s bold America First agenda, 508,000 jobs have been created since he took office. Notably, native-born workers have accounted for all job gains. “I remain committed to working with President Trump to build a strong workforce and renew the American Dream. To achieve these goals and ignite even more economic opportunity for our workers, we need the One Big Beautiful Bill, which will eliminate taxes on tips and deliver the largest tax cut for working-class Americans in history.”
