It's been an honor to serve as your Secretary of Labor. I leave @USDOL with a deeper understanding of why working people are the heart and soul of our nation, and a message: never bet against America's workers. Thank you for everything.


A few toplines from @BLS_gov's February jobs report: ➕ American economy added 311,000 jobs 📉 Unemployment rate was 3.6% ☑️ 12.4 million jobs added since @POTUS took office 🏨 105,000 leisure and hospitality jobs created in February


📈 Over the past 3 months, we've added 351,000 jobs/month to the economy on average. The administration’s investments in infrastructure, manufacturing and clean energy continue to create good jobs. Since @POTUS took office, our economy has added 12.4 million.


Today, @BLS_gov reported the American economy added 311,000 jobs in February, and the unemployment rate was 3.6%. With 12.4 million jobs added since President Biden took office, steady, stable economic progress continues.


This year, with @POTUS' Inflation Reduction Act going into effect, health insurance and prescription drug costs are lower for millions of families, and clean energy incentives will further lower household costs and create good jobs for years to come.

Why pursue an #apprenticeship? At an event this week highlighting Registered Apprenticeships, we asked three apprentices to weigh in.


When @POTUS took office, our economy was in crisis and millions were out of work. In two years, we've delivered a historic economic recovery and laid the foundation for steady and stable growth in the years to come.

We're building an equitable economy: I'm proud to announce a ~$20 million cooperative agreement between @trades_futures & @NatUrbanLeague. This is a powerful model that will expand Registered Apprenticeship opportunities in communities that have historically not had access.

This past weekend, we lost a leading light in the disability rights movement: Judy Heumann. Because of Judy's example and leadership, we are prepared to carry on her legacy and commit ourselves to building a more inclusive, equitable world. blog.dol.gov/2023/03/06/jud…


Whether it's welcoming a newborn, recovering from surgery, or supporting a sick loved one, we all need access to paid leave at some point. Visit dol.gov/agencies/wb/pa… to learn more about #PaidLeave in the U.S. – who needs it, who has it, how people use it and more.

.@POTUS' American Rescue Plan prevents pension benefit cuts of roughly 60% in the next few years for over 350,000 Central States Pension Fund workers and retirees. That means peace of mind and a dignified retirement for thousands of workers and their loved ones.


Through his American Rescue Plan, Infrastructure Law, CHIPS Act, and Inflation Reduction Act, @POTUS is delivering on his promise to grow our economy from the bottom up and middle out.


This METRO bus maintenance facility will house a new electric bus maintenance registered apprenticeship program, made possible by @POTUS' American Rescue Plan. This is another example of how the Biden-Harris admin is investing in clean energy by investing in America's workers.

Watch Live: @SecMartyWalsh visits METRO’s Kashmere facility for a discussion on clean energy and METRO’s electric bus maintenance apprenticeship program - fb.watch/i_cnqMI_lw/?mi…



Julie is a dear friend, colleague and a lifelong champion of America’s workers. I have the utmost confidence in her ability to sustain the work of the Department and advance @POTUS' vision of an economy that puts workers first and leaves no one behind. whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/…
