This isn't jobs data... This is an estimate, by an unknown source, as to what the employment numbers might be be at the end of 2022. From your site:

> In 2019, around 157.54 million people were employed in the United States. For 2022, an increase by almost 2 million employed people is expected.

Also, do we think this estimate is recent? The US economy has not been adding jobs as expected, and has undershot recent projections by a lot. New hires were 300K short of projections in November[0] and 200K short in December!
