Claim: As of September 2025, the United States has been experiencing a period of job growth
Veracity: FALSE
Reality: According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the unemployment rate as of September 2025 is 4.2%. In August of 2025 the BLS reported that the US saw a decrease of approximately 57,000 new jobs, prompting the Trump administration to fire BLS Commissioner Erika McEntarfer. On October 1, 2025 payroll servicer ADP reported further nationwide job losses of approximately 32,000 jobs.
