New York Millions of Americans again filed for unemployment benefits last week, as the coronavirus recession drags on.
Another 1.9 million workers filed for initial unemployment aid last week, according to the US Department of Labor. More than a quarter of the labor force -- 42.6 million people -- has now claimed benefits since the pandemic began ravaging the US labor market.For 11 weeks in a row, jobless claims have been in the millions. Before the pandemic, the labor department had never recorded a single week of jobless claims over a million.
Needs more stimulus money now
Computers systems states had created,for this has been an utter disaster
Angry as hell - stay home - watch cartoons 😍
lol..
thanks to the rioting also!! obviously we can all open because protests Nd funerals can go in
Were these the owners of burned and looted businesses and their employees?
All the negative, not a word about how it was 3 times lower than expected and markets are on upswing....
If people want jobs, then STOP BURNING BUSINESSES! Maybe that’s why people are unemployed, because they have no common sense. Other businesses should just open & let people decide to go or not.
If you are upset about unemployment, it means that you care more about money than you do about human life. You are a racist. You need to immediately take a knee and apologize for your “white privilege” in order to make amends to the woke gods of the left.
The President would love to fix it all, but the Democrats want to keep the country shut down. I actually fear for his life as SpeakerPelosi wants him dead so she can take over, then our country will be lost forever. Sodom & Gomorrah. Crime up 5000%, normalized pedophilia etc
Well, everyone over reacted to a virus with a 98 to 99% survival rate. 🤷♂️
Since the LOCKDOWNS began. Not pandemic.
Dem States are a disaster -
We the people need to tell the Dems we need to all re-open and get back to work - those that are at the protests AFTER curfew clearly dont work - you can protest but businesses remain closed - sad that some even had to close their business - Dem statates are a mess!
Instead ask for politicians to open their states and allow businesses to reopen and return jobs to their people. Even Dr Fauci is saying cancelling schools in the fall is a reach!!!!!
How about STOP the riots, Covid numbers will remain down, and people can get back to work. These gatherings you condone do nothing to help unemployment.
But how many are still on unemployment? That would be more important metric to know. Investigative reporting is not your thing is it? Just anything that goes against the Trump Administration and you run it like blind fools. MAGA
Funny, 2 tweets up from your post, from another news organization said it fell to 1.9 million. Get your story straight fake news CNN
Very sad, and for some very tragic indeed
Amazingly the WS stocks continue climbing high as the WH crook says. Those trillion $$$ packages do create a fake economic prosperity to trap the fools while the treasury receives negative revenue by piling up debts.
3.5 years of Trump and the GOP and all we have to show for it are 108,000 dead Americans, 42,000,000 unemployed, and protests across the world against fascist police brutality encouraged by the tiny-fingered BunkerBoy. ComplicitGOP GOPBetrayedAmerica
comments....Trump's fault, he locked country Next CNN post will be number of Covids deaths and comments from the same people will be: Trump's fault, he did not lock the country
And this
glad people are waking up to your stations shit people are figuring it out and boycotts are coming
So much winning. The big orange turd and his very fine people in Charlottesville.
I’m still having problems with my prosthetic leg and hip insurance is giving me a hard time
Crooked trump is losing big time
At least there are still something to claim.. most of other countries people claim SxxT..
Bad news for the crooked administration
realDonaldTrump WhiteHouse PressSec so how well is he leading? What? What?
Is there any data on how many got their jobs back? Since the rationale provided to us citizens was that small business was able to obtain loan/grants if they intended to hire back the employees. Has the hiring started?
Wow. Trump fixed it once. He can fix it again.
They can't go back to work because we could get sick. Feel free to protest, riot and loot!
We need to tax public companies that have benefited from the pandemic....instead of subsidizing them with federal funds.....to pay for the unemployed.
Gee, I wonder if that has anything to do with not opening businesses but letting crowds come out & burn them down?
My husband and I have been furloughed since March 15th and haven’t received a dime! We have just been pending with unemployment. WE NEED MONEY!!
GovWhitmer GavinNewsom NYGovCuomo This article was written for you.
SpeakerPelosi why is it that when you all need to pass a bill to pay for something there's money for it but millions of Americans are seking unemployment and can't get assistance? We all should of got more than 1 relief check! It's taxpayers money!!!
Hahahahahaha they incentivize the hell out of unemployment by making the benefits the highest they’ve ever been in history.... then point to record high numbers of people filing. Nice.
From; An angry citizen.
That’s 7 million less than expected
How many have come off unemployment?
WHEN PROTESTERS DESTROY BUSINESSES--PEOPLE ARE OUT OF WORK
Trump doesn't care
