Indianapolis – Governor Mike Pence today issued the following statement following the news that Indiana’s unemployment has dropped 0.1 percent in September and now stands at 4.5 percent.
“The news that unemployment continues to fall in Indiana is a source of encouragement. More Hoosiers are working than ever before in state history, and the fact that our labor force participation rates are outpacing national averages is a testament to Indiana’s growing economy.
“My administration is committed to building upon this momentum. We’ll continue to pursue policies that will encourage greater economic development in the Hoosier state while making investments in workforce, education and infrastructure. With our strong Hoosier workforce and disciplined fiscal leadership, Indiana can serve as the blueprint for success when it comes to a growing economy.â€
