It’s no secret that San Diego became the largest city to have a Republican Mayor, and the following low unemployment rate is not a simple coincidence. San Diego has recently been making incredible strides away from unemployment, with our unemployment rate down from 3.6% to 3.4% in less than two months.<\/p>\n
This growth in the job market is highly visible in San Diego County, with more and more construction jobs for average post-diploma workers being filled. An increase in public sector jobs can also be attributed to the booming job market in San Diego. Overall, California has an unemployment rate of 4.2%, and a national rate of 3.8%, making San Diego very impressive with regard to unemployment.<\/p>\n
Using the previously stated statistics, compared to the rest of the state, it seems like San Diego is a job-haven for people looking for work and the American Dream. San Diego Mayor Kevin Faulconer has introduced a multitude of actions that have provided jobs to everyday San Diegans, including working with the cross-border coalition, the San Diego downtown partnership, and setting up a workforce commission.<\/p>\n
The biggest of these three would be the cross-border coalition, as it helps employ construction workers, providing great job opportunities and wages to the “average” person.<\/p>\n
Regarding the workforce commission, Mayor Faulconer set it up to allocate a small dose of state funds to job-training for several different fields. This helps train otherwise unqualified workers for jobs that need to be fulfilled, allowing San Diego’s poverty rate to plummet.<\/p>\n
As responsible voters, we need to continue to support legislators and leaders that always have the good of the average American at the forefront of their mind, with Mayor Faulconer being a wonderful example.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
