Washington, Jan 7 (Prensa Latina) President Joe Biden on Friday lashed out at Republicans concerning economic matters and self-praised for latest employment data during his first year in office.

Speaking to reporters from the White House, Joe Biden strongly rejected GOPers´ criticism, who claimed he did not adequately address the country´s inflation, reporting the worst rates ever in last 30 years.

President Biden held Republicans responsible for running counter to Covid-19 relief bill – worth $1.9 trillion – which provided funding for the reopening of schools, distribution of vaccine and the additional palliative for US people.

The US president stressed he utterly refused to let GOPers stand “in the way of this recovery.”

Biden´s comments came after learning about the employment report released by the Labor Department on Friday, showing the United States made 199,000 jobs available in December. It was the country´s lowest number in 2021 though. Such a figure has been “the largest fall in unemployment in a year in the history of the United States.”
