Hoyer Statement on July Jobs Report
Criticized Trump's tariff policies for increasing costs on American families and weakening job growth.
“Today's job report revealed that only 73,000 jobs were added to the economy last month, with unemployment increasing to 4.2%. Additionally, we saw a revision that 258,000 fewer jobs were added the previous two months than initially thought.”

Ranking Member Hoyer Statement on the Cancellation of the IRS Direct File Program
Criticized IRS cancellation of Direct File program, citing successful pilot results and taxpayer benefits.
“That's why I helped lead Democrats' efforts to establish Direct File through the Inflation Reduction Act: to save Americans time and money. The federal government requires Americans to pay their taxes, thus it ought to provide them a free and easy way to do so. That logic is lost on the Trump Administration.”
