Another 4.4 Million File for Unemployment

“Another 4.4 million workers filed for jobless benefits last week, the U.S. government reported Thursday, as the coronavirus pandemic continued to ravage the nation’s economy,” the New York Times reports.

“Over five weeks, more than 26 million people have now joined the ranks of the unemployed.”

CNBC: “It took only five weeks for the U.S. economy to wipe out all the job gains it added over the last 11 years.”
