Sterling, VA – Today, Congresswoman Jennifer Wexton (D-VA) announced a new report from the U.S. Congress Joint Economic Committee that shows the policies she has championed over the last two years have created 20,500 better-paying jobs in Virginia’s 10th District since President Biden came into office. “From day one, my priority has been to improve the lives of Virginia’s families, and I’m proud that this Congress I’ve helped deliver on major legislation to do just that by supporting our local economy and creating good paying jobs here in our communities,” said Congresswoman Jennifer Wexton. “From the Infrastructure Law to the Inflation Reduction Act, we’re investing in American businesses and workers and seeing historically strong job creation. There’s more work to do to bring down costs and build on the progress we’ve made to recover and grow our economy, and that’s exactly what I’m fighting to do right now in Congress.” The new report from the Joint Economic Committee shows:
Among the many job-creating measures that Wexton has helped champion are the American Rescue Plan which put shots in arms, got kids back in schools, and jumpstarted our economic recovery; the CHIPS and Science Act, which fixes our supply chains and makes more critical goods in America; the Inflation Reduction Act, which includes historic investments in clean, secure American energy; and the Infrastructure Law, which is rebuilding our roads, bridges, and transit systems, bringing broadband to every community, and replacing lead pipes and cleaning up drinking water. ### |
