HUNDREDS OF STEEL WORKERS WILL BE LAID OFF in Michigan and more lay-offs are planned in Indiana.

Reuters: “United States Steel Corp (X.N) will temporarily lay off hundreds of workers at its Great Lakes facility in Michigan in coming weeks, according to a filing the steelmaker made with the State of Michigan. … An official at the United Steelworkers union, which represents U.S. Steel workers, said lay-offs were also planned for the Gary Works facility in Indiana.”

THE UNEMPLOYMENT RATE IS STAGNANT this year in key battleground states, including Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania.

Washington Post: “Employment numbers in the states key to Trump’s 2016 win are flat this year”

Washington Post: “Unemployment rates have been fairly stagnant in many places over the past year. In September 2018, the national unemployment rate was 3.7 percent, what it is now. To get a broader look at this (particularly through the lens of the 2020 election), we pulled data from nine swing states — Arizona, Florida, Georgia, Michigan, Minnesota, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin — and tracked unemployment and employer payrolls over the past several years. On average, the unemployment rates in those nine states haven’t moved over the course of 2019.”
