White House Chief of Staff Ron Klain on President Biden's economic and domestic priorities
JUDY WOODRUFF: The U.S. labor market proved to be far stronger than expected last month, ,despite the Omicron surge. Employers added 467,000 jobs, as the economy picked up momentum.,The Labor Department also said that there were a total of nearly 700,000 more jobs ,created in November and December than initially reported. Wages grew by 5.7 percent last month, ,compared to a year ago, a good gain, but still below the rate of inflation. And the unemployment ,rate ticked up slightly to 4 percent, as more people returned to the job market.,President Biden took note of the big gains this afternoon.,And I spoke with Ron Klain, the White House chief of staff, a short time ago.,Ron Klain, welcome to the "NewsHour.",This is a day of good news about jobs. These are numbers the administration has to be happy about, ,not just last month, but November, December. How much of this can the president take credit for?,RON KLAIN, White House Chief of Staff: Well, look, it's first and foremost an accomplishment ,of the American people, their resilience -- the president talked about that today -- their ability ,to take everything that the past few years, that the Omicron variant has thrown at them, ,and be back at work and fight on and help grow this economy, ,our business sector, our workers, everyone coming together to do this.,But I do think the president deserves a lot of credit for the policies we put in place ,that made this recovery possible, the Rescue Plan in March that got the economy off its back and ,going, buy American, made in America policies that have really restored our manufacturing strength, ,and the bipartisan infrastructure plan that's got a lot of Americans out there working ,building bridges and roads, airports, all these critical things.,So, it's been a strong economic policy that has unleashed the power, ,the creativity, the energy of the American people.,JUDY WOODRUFF: At the same time, there's already speculation that this could lead to ,higher-than-expected rate increases, interest rate increases, by the Federal Reserve in March.,How concerned is the White House about that? And, as you know, the American people ,say they are very worried about inflation. What can the president do about that?,RON KLAIN: Well, first of all, about the Federal Reserve decisions, we have a policy ,we don't comment on what the Fed does. They're independent. They do what they think is best ,for the nation in managing the monetary supply.,I will say, the president has sent five incredibly distinguished nominees to the ,Federal Reserve to the U.S. Senate. I hope they will be confirmed shortly to add their ,voices -- some are continuing, some new members -- to manage the critical issues the Fed manages.,In terms of inflation, you heard the president talk today ,about understanding the pain the American people feel when they go to the gas pump and the grocery ,store and pay those higher prices. And what he talked about today is his agenda on Capitol Hill ,to bring down the everyday costs Americans are facing, to cut the cost of child care, ,to cut the cost of prescription drugs, to cut the cost of health insurance,to cut the costs ,of eldercare for people taking care of elderly relatives and family members.,So, there is an agenda we have up on the Hill to really reduce the everyday prices ,the American people face. I will let the Fed do its job. We're going to do our job.,JUDY WOODRUFF: Let me turn you, Ron Klain, to COVID.,As we know, it does appear the number of cases of Omicron is receding. But at the same time, ,the United States is now approaching 900,000 deaths from COVID, more than half of those ,since President Biden took office. To what extent is that a result of the delay addressing the need ,for more tests on COVID, and, frankly, just understanding the seriousness of Omicron?,RON KLAIN: Well, Judy, I don't think anyone has ,or hasn't perished from COVID because of the lack of a test.,I think that we have people perishing from COVID because they haven't been vaccinated. ,Well, we know is that vaccinated people, particularly fully vaccinated people ,who've been boosted, which we have made available out for many months, ,those people have a very, very, very small chance of severe illness or death from COVID.,The people who are dying from COVID now are overwhelmingly people who have not ,been vaccinated. Now, that vaccine is available at thousands, tens of thousands of locations ,nationwide, free of charge, almost always without even a wait. Same thing for booster shots.,And so we need to continue to do the work of getting more and more Americans ,vaccinated. We have really made it as available as possible. It is free. ,It is safe. It is FDA-approved. And we need to see more Americans get vaccinated.,JUDY WOODRUFF: At the same time, Ron Klain, ,I'm sure you are aware there's been a lot of commentary, even criticism of the adminis
