Julie Su, the acting U.S. Labor Secretary, highlighted on Bloomberg Television that President Joe Biden is the only president to have recorded positive job growth in every month of his presidency. In her remarks regarding the December jobs report, Su emphasized that the consistent job growth is not coincidental, stating, "These numbers demonstrate continued really steady, stable job growth." Biden himself has claimed that his administration is the only one to achieve job creation every single month. Representative Richard Neal noted that under Biden's leadership, 16.6 million jobs have been created, starting with 379,000 jobs in his first full month as president. This achievement marks an unprecedented milestone in U.S. labor history, as no prior administration has experienced such continuous job gains.
