“LEFT JAB AND RIGHT JAB” JULY 20, 2019

0

“LEFT JAB AND RIGHT JAB”

“Right Jab And Left Jab” was created because we have two commenters that post on a daily basis either in our “IS IT TRUE” or “Readers Forum” columns concerning National or International issues.
Joe Biden and Ronald Reagan’s comments are mostly about issues of national interest.  The majority of our “IS IT TRUE” columns are about local or state issues, so we have decided to give Mr. Biden and Mr. Reagan exclusive access to our newly created “LEFT JAB and RIGHT JAB”  column. They now have this post to exclusively discuss national or world issues that they feel passionate about.
We shall be posting the “LEFT JAB” AND “RIGHT JAB” several times a week.  Oh, “LEFT JAB” is a liberal view and the “RIGHT JAB is representative of the more conservative views. Also, any reader who would like to react to the written comments of the two gentlemen is free to do so.

FOOTNOTE: Any comments posted in this column do not represent the views or opinions of the City-County Observer or our advertisers.

June Indiana Employment Report

Private Sector Employment Reaches Preliminary Record Peak

INDIANAPOLIS (July 19, 2019) – Indiana’s unemployment rate drops to 3.5 percent for June and remains lower than the national rate of 3.7 percent. The monthly unemployment rate is a U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) indicator that reflects the number of unemployed people seeking employment within the prior four weeks as a percentage of the labor force.

Indiana’s labor force had a net decrease of 10,126 over the previous month. This was a result of a decrease of 3,123 unemployed residents and a decrease of 7,003 employed residents. Indiana’s total labor force, which includes both Hoosiers employed and those seeking employment, stands at 3.39 million, and the state’s 64.8 percent labor force participation rate remains above the national rate of 62.9 percent.

In addition, regular unemployment insurance claims in the reference week (12th of the month) continue to decline in 2019.

June 2019 Employment Charts

Employment by Sector

Private sector employment has grown by 37,000 over the year and 6,800 over the previous month. The monthly increase is primarily due to gains in the Private Educational and Health Services (5,000) and the Professional and Business Services (1,100) sectors. Gains were partially offset by losses in the Manufacturing (-700) and the Construction (-500) sectors. Total private employment reached a preliminary record highpoint of 2,750,700, which is 18,600 above the December 2018 peak. The June 2019 peak, like all data within this report, is subject to monthly revisions and annual benchmarking.
