We're officially in the Biden Boom.
Last week’s job report showed just how much the Biden-Harris economic plan is working. Under President Biden, our nation has created more than 6.6 million jobs, with a whopping 467,000 jobs just this past January.
Friday’s job report marked 2021 as the greatest year of job creation under any president in history. This means more jobs for middle-class families, more ways for folks to keep their kids fed, roofs over their heads, and more flourishing small businesses.
Our historic job growth didn’t happen by chance. It’s a result of President Biden and Vice President Harris delivering on their economic promises:

How we got here: The greatest year of job creation in American history
These job numbers show that we’re firmly on the road to recovery. But you may be wondering: How did we create 6.6 million jobs in just one year? Here is a snapshot of what Democrats have been doing to build this nation back better:
-
The American Rescue Plan: Last March, Democrats passed this critical relief package without a single Republican vote. It delivered $1,400 stimulus checks, supported small businesses, and so much more.
-
The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law: President Biden helped our country take a monumental step forward by signing into law the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law. It will repair and rebuild the nation’s roads and bridges while strengthening resilience to climate change and creating good-paying, union jobs.
-
Keeping Americans healthy: Mobilizing a nationwide effort to open up 20,000 free COVID testing sites and get folks vaccinated has resulted in Americans being able to get back to work safely.
Share with your friends and family just how much President Biden has been doing for middle-class families:
Increasing COVID-19 testing in schools
Since day one, President Biden and Vice President Harris have been committed to keeping schools open while keeping kids and teachers safe and healthy.
But we cannot let our guard down. That’s why President Biden is taking action to increase free COVID-19 testing in schools so students, teachers, and staff can learn and work safely.
And it’s not just schools that are getting free tests. Every home in the U.S. is currently eligible to order four at-home COVID tests, completely free of charge. If you haven’t yet claimed your tests, head to COVIDtests.gov to get your order in now.
A merch collab for Black History Month
To celebrate Black History Month, the DNC collaborated with Nashville-based Black artist Cymone Wilder to produce a T-shirt and tote bag you can only get at the Official DNC Store!
The tote and tee both feature a saying from DNC Chair Jaime Harrison to serve as a reminder to honor, hear, and treasure the achievements, heritage, and voices of Black Americans this month and every month.
Head to the Official Democratic Store now to secure your shirt and tote this month!
