Biden administration blames ongoing pandemic fears for disappointing jobs report
CNN
The Biden administration is attributing the disappointing September jobs report to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic and fears over the Delta variant.
In a troubling sign that Covid is still disrupting the economy, the new jobs report indicates that US employers added only 194,000 jobs in September.
"This is a complex report," Labor Secretary Marty Walsh told "CNN Newsroom" on Friday, citing lower-than-expected growth in the hospitality industry.
