Unemployment Rate Falls to 5.9% – 248,000 Jobs Created in September

Watch Republicans find a way to somehow say this is bad for the economy.

In September, the economy added another 248,000 jobs, lowering the unemployment rate to 5.9 percent according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, and creating even more headaches for Republicans.

BLU stated that the number of unemployed persons decreased by 329,000 to 9.3 million. The White House noted that America’s businesses extended the longest streak of private-sector job gains on record.
