President Joe Biden mistakenly praised the Congressional Black Caucus while delivering a speech at a Congressional Hispanic Caucus event.
Moreover, Biden did not pause to correct his statement; he continued without addressing it.
“Just think of the work we’ve done together on civil rights, labor rights, healthcare, education,” Biden continued, “Folks, we’ve fundamentally changed the direction of our economy to grow it from the middle out and the bottom up.”“African Americans and Hispanic workers” to those “without high school diplomas” in a speech this month.
Biden said, “We’ve seen record lows in unemployment, particularly — and I’ve focused on this my whole career — particularly for African Americans and Hispanic workers and veterans, you know, the workers without high school diplomas.” Fact-checkers, however, insist the claims are wrong, but they are relying on a White House transcript provided after the event, effectively changing what Biden said.We’ve seen record lows in unemployment, particularly — and I’ve focused on this my whole career — particularly for African Americans and Hispanic workers and veterans, you know,the workers without high-school diplomas. The lowest unemployment rate in 70 years for women now.
