Redmond: Trump Didn’t Just Fail to Protect Black Jobs. He’s Leading Us to Black Unemployment
Fred Redmond, AFL-CIO Secretary – Treasurer
President Trump likes to say he is delivering for working people. He promised on the campaign trail that he would protect “Black jobs.” But like so many of his promises, it is an empty one. In fact, we have been living with the effects of Trump’s policies since he took office in January and the only thing he has delivered for us is employment uncertainty and financial insecurity. The July jobs report that came out last week is starting to reflect that.
