Claim: Vice President Kamala Harris said that she and President Biden have created 800,000 manufacturing jobs while Donald Trump lost tens of thousands of manufacturing jobs.
Verdict: Harris is misleading about both Trump’s record and the record of the Biden-Harris adminstration. Manufacturing employment plunged, along with employment in most other sectors, when the pandemic struck and many businesses were shuttered. Total manufacturing employment fell by nearly 1.4 million in March and April combined.
Harris’s claim that she and Biden added 800,000 jobs is also misleading. U.S. manufacturers increased their payrolls by around 742,000 workers between January 2021 when Biden took office and October 2022 but most of those were not “new” manufacturing jobs as Harris claimed. They were factories re-filling jobs that had been created under President Trump.
