An update on state unemployment numbers by states. Just as previous 35 months, Republican governors outperformed their Democratic counterpart on lower unemployment and those states with both legislature and executive also have lower unemployment.
65 percent of top half with the lowest unemployment have Republican governors and 63 percent of Republicans governor are at or less than national unemployment average. We compared four of the most Republican states with the top four populous Democratic states, the same results as Republican governors outperformed Democrats governors. Three out of four Republicans are below the national average in unemployment rate compared to only one Democrat governor below the national average. This trend has been obvious since August of 2020 that Republicans have led in economic growth and producing jobs.
I wrote in a recent post, “The United States is in the middle of the tax-reduction revolution on a state level and as Jared Walczak of Tax Foundation, observed, “The past three years have seen the largest wave of state-tax cuts in the modern era, certainly since income taxes were created over a century ago at the state level. We have seen more than half of the states with income taxes cut their top rates. We have seen trimming of rates in other taxes, including thirteen states with corporate-income-tax cuts, a couple of states with sales-tax cuts, and trimming other taxes as well.” And these states are enacting real tax reforms.”
