#shorts On 1/20/2023, a reporter asked White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, "Does the President have any concern about the number of job cuts that are happening in the tech sector? Alphabet announced — that’s Google’s parent company, obviously — announced 12,000 job cuts today. That follows Microsoft earlier this week, following several thousand from last year as well. Is this something the President is concerned about (inaudible)?

MS. JEAN-PIERRE: So, of course, we watch very closely when we hear these types of reports of Americans losing jobs. That is something that the President is certainly aware of ... data points exist. We’re seeing that. Layoffs remain record low. According to job opening data, the U.S. economy continues to grow, initial unemployment claims are historically low, and the unemployment rate is at a 50-year low. So, leading analysts have publicly stated that they do not believe the recent layoffs in the tech industry are indicative of trends in the broader economy.
