OH Unemployment Numbers Grow

More than 1 million people filed unemployment claims in the past six weeks, as Ohio’s stay-at-home order depressed the economy and led to widespread layoffs. For the week ending April 25th, 92,920 people filed jobless claims…down from the 109,369 claims filed the previous week. The state says it has now distributed more than $1.45 billion in unemployment checks to more than 481,000 claimants.
