Shalanda Young, director of the Office of Management and Budget, repeated a 'misleading' claim that President Biden has added 15 million new jobs since he took office.
White House Office of Management and Budget Director Shalanda Young repeated a common refrain from the Biden administration that multiple fact-checkers have labeled misleading or lacking context. Young said during Thursday's hearing on the administration's $7.3 trillion budget that President Biden added 15 million jobs and that unemployment has been at a 50-year historic low for the last two years.
Biden’s $7.3 trillion budget plan, which he unveiled this month, includes proposals to hike taxes on corporations and high-income households. It lays out roughly $5 trillion in tax increases overall, which the White House said would be split evenly between corporations and the top 2% of earners.
Congressional leaders are beginning to discuss the road map to funding fiscal 2025 even as negotiations continue on how to fund the rest of fiscal 2024, which began on Oct. 1, 2023. Fox News' Elizabeth Elkind contributed to this report.
