The report also says that more Americans started looking for work, although not all of them found jobs immediately.

"President Trump campaigned on how to make America work again. Even before he took office, the markets knew he would deliver on that promise."
President Donald Trump also signed an executive order that will direct the Treasury secretary to review the 2010 Dodd-Frank financial overhaul.
It's Trump's first step at scaling back regulations on financial services.
Trump has called the law a "disaster" and said it failed to address some of the causes of the 2008-2009 financial crisis.

2. SOUNDBITE (English) Sean Spicer, White House Press Secretary:
"The president's already taken significant steps to turn our economy around and he is looking forward to ensuring that every American who wants a job has the opportunity to find one. While the president's definitely pleased that the job growth has far surpassed expectations and that the labor force participation is rising, he also recognizes that there is a lot more work to be done."

3. SOUNDBITE (English) Sean Spicer, White House Press Secretary:
"The Dodd-Frank Act is a disastrous policy that's hindering our markets, reducing the availability of credit and crippling our economy's ability to grow and create jobs. It imposed hundreds of new regulations and financial -- on financial institutions, while establishing unaccountable and unconstitutional new agency that does not adequately protect consumers. Perhaps worst of all, despite all of this overreaching, Dodd-Frank did not address the causes of the financial crisis, something we all know must be done. It did not solve the too big to fail and we must determine conclusively that the failure of a large bank will never again leave taxpayers on the hook."
