President Biden’s economic plan is working. THREAD:
In total, 5 million jobs have been created in the first eight months of President Biden’s Administration.
Retail sales continued to rise in September after climbing higher than expected in August as well – an increase of 14 percent compared to this time last year.
New claims for unemployment have fallen below 300,000 for the first time since the pandemic began – a drop of more than 60 percent since President Biden took office, and the lowest weekly figure since March 14, 2020.

Today, the White House hosted 97 teachers from all over the country to celebrate their work and present them with 2020 and 2021 Teacher of the Year awards.

Here's what a few teachers had to say about what inspires them, and what their favorite part of the job is: THREAD
Chanda Jefferson, 2020 South Carolina Teacher of the Year, recalls how her high school Chemistry teacher — her only African American science teacher — ignited her love of STEM and inspired her to become an educator too.
Owen Bondono, 2021 Michigan Teacher of the Year says other great teachers, including his sister and 6th grade teacher, inspired him to teach. "Her small actions every day in the 6th grade, made me feel special... and made me want to help other people feel that same way."

Today, we're taking a #WhiteHouseDeepDive into how President Biden's Bipartisan Infrastructure Deal and Build Back Better Agenda will position the United States to outpace our global competitors and win the 21st century. THREAD:
For years, the US has fallen behind other major economies in some of the most critical areas of competition. By investing in our physical infrastructure and our people, the Bipartisan Infrastructure Deal and Build Back Better Agenda will set us back on track to lead the world.
The auto industry's future is electric. China has produced 2 times more electric vehicles (EVs) than we have. @POTUS's infrastructure bill and Build Back Better Agenda will close the gap by establishing the first national network of EV chargers and EV tax credits for consumers.

For years, the US has fallen behind other major economies in some of the most critical areas to our economic competitiveness. Together, the Build Back Better Agenda and Bipartisan Infrastructure Deal will position the US to win the race for the 21st century.

THREAD:
China has manufactured more than twice the number of electric vehicles (EVs) as the US. President Biden’s infrastructure deal and Build Back Better Agenda will close the gap by establishing a national network of EV chargers and providing tax credits for consumers buying EVs.
In a 2020 evaluation of “energy transition readiness,” the World Economic Forum ranked America behind Australia, Germany, Japan, and others.

The Bipartisan Infrastructure Deal will make the largest investments in clean energy transmission and climate resilience in US history.

In the fight against COVID-19, the strain on our hospital systems, our economy, and the risk to our children is too great not to use every tool available.

Vaccination requirements have increased vaccination rates by 20+ percentage points to over 90% in many organizations.
Vaccination requirements have already helped cut the rate of unvaccinated Americans by one-third.

Today, President Biden met with CEOs and business leaders about addressing the debt limit. Here’s what a few of them had to say.

THREAD:
Citi CEO Jane Fraser: “I can tell you that from an economic perspective, we need to resolve this issue very quickly. Every day of delay right now comes at an increasing price… it will hurt consumers. It will hurt small businesses.”
President and CEO of Nasdaq, Adena Friedman: “When we look at these delays, and certainly a default, would mean that hardworking Americans would ultimately bear the burden.”
