Job seekers exercise social distancing as they wait to be called into the Heartland Workforce Solutions office in Omaha, Neb., Wednesday, July 15, 2020. Nebraska reinstated job search requirements this week for most people claiming jobless benefits. Those unemployment insurance requirements were suspended in mid-March to help employees who had lost their jobs due to the coronavirus.
The Labor Department’s Thursday report showed that applications for jobless aid fell by about 10,000 from the previous week. The figure has now topped 1 million for 17 straight weeks. Before the pandemic, the record high for weekly unemployment applications was nearly 700,000.The total number of people who are receiving jobless benefits dropped 400,000 to 17.3 million, the government said.
The government’s employment report for June showed a solid gain of 4.8 million jobs and an unemployment rate that fell to 11.1% from 13.3%. “The risk of a dip lower in the economy has increased as more states adopt policies to combat the virus spread,” economists at Bank of America said in research note. “Until the country manages to get the virus under control, the recovery is likely to be one of fits and starts.”

Because we need PPE, testing for all, leadership, rent, food, transportation and empathy.
Threaten the economy!? It's already trashed!
Its kind of one those 'here's your sign'thing. He wants to get the US going again so people can get back to work but certain states dont want to.
Great job state governments 🤦♂️🤦♂️
Good luck getting unemployment.....trump wants to supress the data .....he has been campaign mode since he cheated in 2016. He do anything for his re election!
FrancisWegner What happened to stimulus back-up ?
How is this Making America Great Again? maga
This just in: FUCKING DUH
But Republicans think they can just go do something else. Find a different job. Most of the jobs won’t be returning. We are seeing tent cities across the country. We need more help for them. We need to give them more stimulus money and pay for housing. Stop the evictions.
Just in time for the SenateGOP to let the enhanced unemployment benefits expire in like a week. November can’t come soon enough. Vote them ALL OUT!
Thank you media and liberals. Oh and thank you china for infecting the world and causing deaths, despair and suicide of people all over the world.
51million unemployed, so much Trump winning.
If only the president focused on, I don't know... STOPPING THE SPREAD instead of trying to force the economy open, maybe, JUST MAYBE, this pandemic would have been under control by now. But her emails, RIGHT? TrumpVirus TrumpFailedAmerica
Well isn’t that the Democratic election plan? Destroy the economy, so we vote in a bunch of socialists?
Getting benefits is close to impossible. THAT is by design.we need help!
But don't worry, Trump says that the stock market is getting better so all our troubles are surely behind us.
When will this data be pulled into the HHS?
Yeah. Cool. So much winning. 🤨 Stop, I cant take anymore winning. 😒 I’m so sick of all the winning. 🙄
The Trump administration has failed in it’s response to the pandemic and the working class people are struggling. The record unemployment levels,National debt and worst GDP in history along with the tax breaks for the rich is the Trump administration way of tanking the economy.
The grand reaper Moskal Mitch McConnell could care less about those who are losing everything along with: Donald J Trump is doing everything they can to take avantage of 🇺🇸 voters. What does it take to see through so much hate racism bigotry and range?
Judging by the guts on most of em, they havent worked hard in a looooooong time. I mean damn do some sit ups or something
And spending way increased on junk like more clothes, more fast food, bars, electronics. Imperative to get back to filling life with more.
Thanks Don. realDonaldTrump JoeBidenForPresident2020

FakeNews
mdsharpe2 Cut another stimulus check for $2000 and lockdown till September
donwinslow Gotta call with my manager later today, probably going from furloughed to laid off; feels like a zombie movie & they’re turning around & coming back for a double tap.
donwinslow America 1st!
donwinslow MoscowMitchMcConnell hates America
I wonder if those people are benefitting from the stock market, realDonaldTrump ?
donwinslow Per the president, 'Let them eat Goya beans!'
On the Trump admins 'Find Something New' website, they recommend a new career in wait for it..... Contact Tracing, Health Care Roles, or Wind Turbine Technician. Yes, really.
Oh please, didn’t you hear? Ivanka and the WhiteHouse solved the problem with their mind blowing concept of “find something new”....or was it let them eat cake? I forget.
You should really rewrite this headline—it’s misleading. This is a) first time filers and that should be noted up top, b) saying it’s it’s ‘stuck at’ can be construed that it’s the same people and c) 17.3 million people are receiving benefits—that’s the news—unprecedented!
Yeah, yeah, yeah. But did you hear that the NASDAQ hit an all- time record! Plus IvankaTrump was pretty clear about this, just look for another job! (Please sense the sarcasm in this tweet)
These ppl are fat as shit bruh
