                        LEAVING NO FAMILY BEHIND

  (Ms. KAPTUR asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Ms. KAPTUR. Mr. Speaker, promoting economic growth and creating good-
paying jobs for America's workers is at the forefront of my work every 
day here in Congress. Let me highlight the impressive continued record 
job growth under the Biden administration through legislation passed 
mainly by Democrats here in the House and the other body.
  In the most recent May jobs report from the U.S. Bureau of Labor 
Statistics, 339,000 new jobs were added nationally. The U.S. economy 
has gained more than 13 million jobs under President Biden, the fastest 
job growth in American history.
  Let me repeat that: The fastest job growth in American history.
  As you can see on this chart, President Biden's economic growth plan 
has added an average of 470,000 jobs to the economy every month since 
he took office. What a stark contrast with the job losses under the 
previous administration. These Biden job increases are historic and 
unprecedented. Unemployment remains near historic lows at just 3.7 
percent.
  Mr. Speaker, let this record speak for itself. House Democrats and 
President Biden leave no family behind.
