        Great news, but that also means not a lot of people needing Temporary Manual Labor jobs, which you would know if you monitored the H2B recruitment reports 4 Employers whose need you've already Certified. No need for more rules, use same from 2017. CAP RELIEF

        I sure would like to know where these figures are coming from because job fairs are so crowded with ppl looking for jobs. That is in the midwest and south. More people are out of work. I don't trust this admin. To tell the truth. Data is skewed.

        Initial jobless claims are continuing the trend of the past 9 years. This administration and Congress has not fundamentally improved the lives of working families, but instead has acted to entrench and widen the wealth gap. The middle class continues to stagnatepic.twitter.com/rorlUu8hxO

        Too bad you don't take into account people who no longer receive unemployment and still cannot find a job through no fault of their own. I know of companies still hiring from India when people HERE are qualified and applying. Let's look at true numbers, not this red herring.

        ".. initial jobless claims...were the lowest since December 6, 1969." - @SecretaryAcosta. @POTUS Reagan style Tax Reform, Deregulation, Trade, etc. make lower claims than 1969 even better because USA population has grown by >50% since 1969 (200Mn - 327Mn).https://twitter.com/SecretaryAcosta/status/989492955625947137 …
