Working 2 Jobs to Combat Poverty?

Hey, so I live in the southern US. I am wondering, is it possible that by working 2 jobs, I can make a steadier income? I make $20.25/hr most days at my current job, working FT. Still, even with a partner making around the same, w/ the inflation going on, it is basically impossible to save. Is working 2 jobs the best way to combat this issue? I want to get an education, but sadly it seems very, very hard when we can barely make ends meet. I am wondering if getting a second job is the best way to combat this issue w/ income, or what else I should do. I'm also not sure if I'll be double-taxed for two jobs, or how that works… Thank you.
