Into the Golden Age We Go

While there’s more work to do, let’s take a moment to celebrate that the Trump economy is rocking and rolling!

The most recent jobs numbers show employers are breathing a sigh of relief. The unemployment rate fell, the labor force participation rate rose, and wages surged faster than inflation.

These strong job numbers track with JCN’s new poll of small business owners – the first Trump took office — showing that small business optimism has surged.

In just 30 days, Trump has already taken MANY actions to bring about this optimism, but here are a few highlights you may have missed:

An executive order requiring at least ten existing regulations to be eliminated for every new regulation added. The order also requires the government to follow a rigorous regulatory cost analysis process that will protect Americans from burdensome rules.
A reversal of Democrats’ plans to hire tens of thousands of new IRS agents, who would have targeted approximately 600,000 more families and small businesses making less than $75,000 with audits.
A national energy emergency declaration that will reduce electricity and gas prices by boosting oil production and repealing the Biden Administration’s job-killing green energy mandates.
