“Since the pandemic, a lot of people, when they were at home, had their computers, they had their cell phones, and they actually started entering the market,”
“In fact [the content creator space] had 165 million new creators globally since the pandemic in 2020.” Van Duyne told the John Solomon Reports podcast recently. “In fact [the content creator space] had 165 million new creators globally since the pandemic in 2020.”
Earlier this month, Van Duyne and Rep. Yvette Clarke, D-N.Y., launched the Congressional Creators Caucus, a bipartisan effort to promote the digital creator community, which they estimated at more than 70 million people in America alone.
Van Duyne said in a statement that the purpose of the caucus was “to allow more Americans to follow their dreams, build their own small businesses, and share their unique perspectives with the world.”
She said she expects the content creator space to grow even bigger and contribute even more to the economy.
