Trump Says 300,000 American Women Have Secured Jobs Since Biden Left Office

During an event marking Women’s History Month on March 12th, Donald Trump said his administration has created hundreds of thousands of jobs now filled by American women since he returned to the White House in 2025.

Speaking at a gathering celebrating women’s achievements and working mothers, the president said the milestone reflects his administration’s economic policies and broader efforts to support families across the United States.

“Since I took office, we’ve created more than 300,000 jobs now filled by proud, hardworking American women. It’s a record,” Trump told the audience.

The remarks came as the administration highlighted economic initiatives during National Working Moms Day, which was also being recognized at the event. Trump used the occasion to emphasize the role women play in the American workforce and the importance of policies that support working mothers.

“We’re here to celebrate Women’s History Month, but we’re also celebrating National Working Moms Day,” Trump said. “American women are doing incredible things for our country.”

Trump also pointed to tax policy changes enacted during his administration as part of the reason for what he described as improved economic opportunities for women.

“To support working moms, last year we passed the largest tax cuts in American history,” he said, adding that the measure was intended to help families keep more of their income while encouraging job growth.

The president’s comments contrasted the current economic period with the years under former President Joe Biden, whose administration ended when Trump returned to office following the 2024 election.

Trump framed the figure of 300,000 jobs filled by women as evidence that the U.S. labor market has continued to expand under his leadership, particularly for female workers.

Fact Checking Trump’s Claims

President Donald Trump’s claim that 300,000 jobs have been created and filled by American women since he took office in 2025 lacks clear supporting evidence from official labor data.

According to an Al Jazeera report, economic reports show that the U.S. labor market added jobs during the early period of Trump’s second term, but government statistics generally report total job growth rather than job growth for a specific demographic group, such as women.

While employment levels can rise overall, it is difficult to attribute a precise number of newly created jobs specifically to female workers without detailed labor breakdowns.

PBS reported that broader labor statistics also show that job growth during 2025 was relatively modest compared with previous years, raising further questions about the scale of the claim.

According to economic data cited in fact-checks, the U.S. added about 181,000 jobs in 2025, one of the slowest years for employment growth outside of a recession in decades.

Meanwhile, other reports indicate that labor market shifts during the same period included layoffs and workforce exits affecting women in some sectors, suggesting that employment trends for female workers have been mixed rather than uniformly positive.

Women’s workforce participation has been a major focus of economic discussions in Washington for several years. The topic gained particular attention following the disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic earlier in the decade, which led to significant job losses among women before employment levels gradually recovered.
