And so I think another rate cut is exactly what we need to really grow this workforce.
I mean, we see GDP is up 4.2%.
I think that that's positive growth.
And we want to see more private sector jobs come online out of the 119,000 jobs.
We saw 97,000 of those jobs have been in the private sector, which is way different than the Biden administration when we saw they were all government jobs.
So I think we're on the right track.
Well, I think what happens when you're talking to the American families every day, they want affordability.
So they look for ways in order to provide for their families.
As a former congresswoman and as a former mayor, I know how important that is each and every day.
What we want to do is grow this workforce so that they can have more money in their own pockets.
These policies that came forward with the working family tax cut are going to start to hit.
No tax on tips, no tax on overtime, no tax on Social Security.
I think that that's what people want to see is more of their hard earned dollars in their own pockets for their own choices.
We've seen, again, these real wages go up almost seven hundred dollars.
And I think that that's going to be key, way different than the Biden administration.
You know, when when wages were down almost three thousand.
And so, you know, to have seven hundred dollars more in a family's pocket, that matters to the American people.
Well, actually, food prices have been down.
Energy prices have been down.
We've heard over and over again our Thanksgiving meal is going to be less than it was under the Biden administration.
