At the start of the Biden-Harris Administration, in the midst of the worst economic crisis in 100 years, experts feared a stagnating recovery and even worried about a new recession. 1/11 #DemPartyPlatform #HarrisWalz2024

But #Democrats chose to put workers first, and instead of recession, America has seen remarkable strength and resilience. Our economy grew by 3.1 percent last year – the fastest rate of any major economy in the world. 2/11 #DemPartyPlatform2024 #HarrisWalz2024 #EconomyMatters

#Democrats added nearly 16 million jobs – not only recovering all the positions lost during Trump's botched handling of COVID, but also adding 6.3 million more than existed before the pandemic – surpassing pre-pandemic projections for the labor market. 3/11 #HarrisWalz2024

During this Administration, 30 states from Mississippi to Pennsylvania have seen record-low unemployment; and the run of low unemployment nationwide hasn't been this long in over 50 years. 4/11 #DemPartyPlatform2024 #HarrisWalz2024 #Jobs

Wages are up across the board, and rising fastest for lower-income workers, Black workers, Latinos, and women. 5/11 #DemPartyPlatform2024 #EconomyMatters #HarrisWalz2024

Today's recovery is the fairest on record; in just four years, we've erased 40 percent of the wage inequality gap that took four decades to build. 6/11 #WageGap #DemPartyPlatform2024 #EconomyMatters

A record 18 million small business applications have been filed since President Biden and VP Harris took office, each one of them an act of hope. 7/11 #DemPartyPlatform2024 #SmallBiz #HarrisWalzBringHope

While too many families still feel the pain of inflation at the grocery store, or around the kitchen table when they sit down to pay their bills, we're making progress. #Wages are rising faster than prices, and inflation today is down nearly two-thirds from its peak. 8/11

We have to finish the job. #Democrats will keep fighting to prevent the kind of supply chain shocks and corporate greed that have done so much to raise prices. 9/11 #DemPartyPlatform2024 #HarrisWalz2024 #CorporateGreed

And #Democrats keep investing in American workers, American jobs, and American families, bringing factories home to win the race for the future. 10/11 #DemPartyPlatform2024 #HarrisWalz2024 #AmericanWorkers

#Democrats know the story of the middle class isn't separate from the state of the economy – it's at its heart. And we'll never quit fighting to make sure that everyone is in on the deal. 11/11 #OpportunityEconomy #HarrisWalz2024 #DemPartyPlatform2024 #MiddleClass
