The big picture: America’s resurgent economy
Inside the Beltway, people often forget that what matters most to ordinary Americans is results. And recent news showing surging small-business and consumer confidence, near record low unemployment claims, and expectations of continued economic momentum is good news for U.S. workers and their families.
A few headlines paint the picture:
- US Consumer Confidence Rises to Highest Level Since 2000 (The Associated Press)
- Record Number of U.S. Small-Business Owners Say It’s a Good Time to Expand (Bloomberg)
- U.S. Jobless Claims near 45-Year Low as Economic Outlook Brightens (Reuters)
- Fed Thinks the Economy Has Momentum, Thanks Partly to Tax Cuts, Global Growth (Washington Examiner)
After 8 years of a presidential administration not taking economic growth seriously enough, President Trump has committed to an agenda that puts U.S. workers and businesses first.
