Virginia's unemployment rate rose to 3.5% in June, the only state with an increase, amid federal job cuts.
Quiver AI Summary
The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that Virginia's unemployment rate rose to 3.5% in June, making it the only state in the U.S. to experience an increase during that month. This marks the sixth consecutive rise in the state's unemployment rate, the longest streak since the Great Recession. Congressman Don Beyer highlighted this trend, linking it to the Trump Administration's federal job cuts.
Beyer noted, "With six monthly unemployment increases in a row and the only June increase in America, this can no longer be waived away." He criticized Virginia's leadership for not addressing the situation. The rising unemployment rate may signal broader economic challenges for the state as existing cuts in federal jobs take effect in the coming months.
