U.S. factories GAINED 19K jobs this October, according to today's @BLS_gov report. Moreover, durable goods manufacturing gained 25K jobs. Reshoring is working. Now, the new Congress and White House have "an important opportunity to work together," @ScottPaulAAM says.👇

Durable goods manufacturing just added 25,000 jobs in October. Many of these factories are seeing benefits from tariff-driven demand and reshoring. An important reminder that if the Democratic majority tackles tariffs, its efforts should be extremely limited.
