Trump admin reports significant wage increase for blue-collar workers in 2025

The Trump administration has been promoting the gains made by blue -colored workers in the first few months since the start of President Donald Trump’s term in January.

Administration officials noted that blue-collar wages-which are defined as non-supervision and production-increased workers at an annual rate of 1.7 % in the past five months.

This gain represents the largest wage increase for workers with blue collar under any administration dating back to 1968. It is also greater than the support that these workers saw at the beginning of Trump’s first state.

Lavingna added: “We are working clearly on that now, thanks to the President’s policies and a draft large and beautiful law, and when it is passed, this will enhance the growth initiatives on the side of the offer presented by the President and that the Treasury Secretary is working on implementation.
