Last quarter, the United States economy grew by 4.1 percent. We’ve created 3.7 million new jobs since the election. Unemployment recently fell to its lowest rate in almost 50 years. Unemployment for Americans with disabilities has reached the lowest level ever recorded. In the month of June alone, 600,000 workers entered or reentered the workforce. Pretty good numbers.

In the last two weeks, I established the National Council for the American Worker, which will develop a national workforce strategy, and signed the modernized -- and long-awaited -- Perkins Career and Technical Education Act, which will deliver jobs and training to more than 11 million students and workers. We are very proud of that.
