This is good news for working families across the country. We’ve created 10.5 million jobs since President Biden took office — more than any Administration in history at this point in a presidency — including 750,000 manufacturing jobs have been created under President Biden. That’s just the latest strong economic news this week: * In October, incomes went up and we saw more signs of progress on inflation. * Gas prices are down below $3.50, where they were when Putin invaded Ukraine—and continue to fall. * GDP is up — our economy grew at 2.9% last quarter, an even stronger pace than we’d previously thought. * Black Friday and Cyber Monday both set new records in sales. * We’re making real progress on tackling inflation while we transition to a period of steady stable economic growth, without giving up the gains we’ve made for working families. The President’s plan to build an economy from the bottom up and middle out is working. Remarks by President Biden at Signing of H.J.Res.100 Providing a Resolution to Avert a Nationwide Rail Strike <https://mcusercontent.com/f620288bb41dd81f9c715ef4d/images/de786922-3630-1a2b-146d-ddc5501a0a08.png> The bill I’m about to sign ends a difficult rail dispute and helps our nation avoid what, without a doubt, would have been an economic catastrophe at a very bad time in the calendar. Our nation’s rail system is literally the backbone of our supply chain, as you all well know. And so much of what we rely on is delivered on our rail, from clean water to food and gas and every — every other good. A rail shutdown would have devastated our economy. Communities could have lost access to chemicals necessary to ensure clean drinking water. Farms and ranches across the country would have been unable to feed their livestock. And thanks to the bill Congress passed and what I’m about to sign, we’ve spared the country that catastrophe. At the same time, we ensured workers are going to get a historic 24 percent wage increase over the next five years, improved working conditions, and peace of mind around their healthcare. And I want to thank Congress, Democrats and Republicans, for acting so quickly. I know this was a tough vote for members of both parties. It was a tough for me. But it was the right thing to do at the moment to save jobs, to protect millions of working families from harm and disruption, and to keep supply chains stable around the holidays, and to continue the progress we’ve made and we're continuing to see on the economy. Our economy continues to grow. The economic report — the GDP is up even more than it was previously thought. We continue to create jobs — lots of jobs. And today, we’ve learned that the economy added 263,000 jobs in November. And we’ve now created 10.5 million jobs since I took office, more than any administration in history at this point in a presidency. And 750,000 of them are domestic manufacturing jobs — “Made in America.” As we go into the holiday season, here’s what this all means. The Americans are working, the economy is growing, wages are rising faster than inflation, and we’ve avoided a catastrophic rail strike.

France is the United States’ oldest ally, and while our relationship is rooted in history, it is oriented squarely toward the future. Building on their joint statement of October 29, 2021, the leaders outlined a shared vision to strengthen security and increase prosperity worldwide, combat climate change, build greater resilience to its effects, and advance democratic values. This vision is built on a shared conviction that the United States and its European allies and partners can better face our greatest challenges and capitalize on our most promising opportunities together. This includes addressing global issues such as climate change and energy transition, investing in technologies and building resilient value chains in strategic sectors such as health, semiconductors, and critical minerals, as well as strengthening our security and defense cooperation. * Transatlantic, European and Global Security: The Presidents resolve to continue working tirelessly for a Europe that is whole, free, and at peace. * Economy, Emerging Technologies, Trade, and Supply Chains: The United States and France reaffirm their commitment to an open and rules-based multilateral trading system, with a modernized WTO at its core. * Energy: The Presidents welcome the successful first year of the U.S.-France Bilateral Clean Energy Partnership, which convened most recently in October 2022, as the high-level platform to advance our energy and climate cooperation. * Climate and Biodiversity: The Presidents express their deep concern regarding the growing impact of climate change and nature loss and intend to continue to galvanize domestic and global action to address it. * Democracy and Human Rights: The Presidents recognize that strengthening democratic values and respect for universal human rights is essential to meeting the unprecedented challenges of our time.

Since taking office, President Biden has prioritized relationships with Tribal Nations that are built on respect for Tribal sovereignty and self-governance, honoring federal trust and treaty responsibilities, protecting Tribal homelands, and conducting regular, meaningful, and robust consultation. The President has also advanced an economic agenda that includes historic levels of funding specifically for Tribal communities and Native people, including $32 billion in the American Rescue Plan (ARP), $13 billion in the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL), and $700 million in the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA). Announcements Made During the Tribal Nations Summit Include: * Presidential Memorandum on Uniform Standards for Tribal Consultation. * New Tribal Consultation Policies. * New Best-Practices Report for Tribal Treaty and Reserved Rights. * Implementing Tribal Co-Management and Co-Stewardship of Federal Lands and Waters. * New Indigenous Knowledge Guidance for Federal Agencies. * Access to Capital in Indian Country. * Implementation of the Indian Energy Purchase Preference at Federal Facilities * Electric Vehicle (EV) Initiative for Tribal Nations * Implementation of the Buy Indian Act. * 10-Year National Plan on Native Language Revitalization. * Strengthening and Standardizing Tribal Consultation: New Tribal Advisory Committees and Positions. * Tribal Homelands: New Regulations and Process for Fee to Trust Land Acquisitions. * Climate Change: Tribal Climate Resilience and Community-Driven Relocation.

For each rape reported in connection with a conflict, the United Nations estimates that 10 to 20 cases go undocumented. The United States does not accept CRSV as an inevitable cost of armed conflict, and is committed to supporting survivors through all available measures —including legal, policy, diplomatic, and financial tools—to deter future violence. This week's action complements the Administration’s comprehensive efforts to support survivors of CRSV, including by promoting gender equity and equality, addressing the root causes of conflict, and advancing Women, Peace and Security. In particular, it is aimed at: * Leveraging sanctions authorities, assistance restrictions, and other tools to promote accountability for perpetrators of CRSV; * Ensuring acts of CRSV are given equal consideration alongside other serious human rights abuses in developing designations under existing sanctions authorities; and * Continuing to build a coalition of like-minded nations and international organizations to prevent and promote accountability for acts of CRSV.

All applicants must be United States citizens, and must have completed their undergraduate education. With the exception of active duty military personnel, Federal Government employees are not eligible to apply.
