White House National Economic Council Director Lael Brainard said on Friday that the latest United States jobs report is “really nice” and consistent with stable growth. “I see a lot of positives in the job market,” Brainard told MSNBC. “I think generally this report is consistent with steady and stable growth,” she added and attributed the recent layoffs in the tech sector to the fact that s”some other industries that may have over-hired” and are not “rethinking a little bit.” Earlier, the US Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that the country added 236,000 nonfarm jobs in March, while unemployment was up from February at 3.5%. Brainard emphasized the Biden administration’s efforts to lower the prices of gas, prescription drugs and health care premiums. “We are very focused on bringing costs down for working Americans,” Brainard added.
