Well happening today, the new jobs report for the month of april is coming out is to be expected to be the worst month for unemployment since the Great Depression in the 1930s. Economists are expecting to find that the u. S. Economy lost nearly 22 million jobs last month alone that would be the largest number on record by far in fact the number is so big that it would wipe out the total number of jobs that have been created over the past 10 years.

Coronavirus pandemic has had a major impact on the economy as well here in california. The state is now looking at a huge 54 billion deficit and that deficit could be especially tough on children and seniors as lonnie wong explains. When governor Gavin Newsome proposes billion state budget plan in january the state was writing an economic high. But with 4. 2 million californians now unemployed, state revenues will take a big hit. The stake, lets 3 times more in personal income tax than even the sales tax which is also nosediving the projected deficit is nearly twice that of the great recession. A decade ago. One that caused across the board cuts in state services. Its beyond comprehensible kevin gordon has the biggest education lobby firm in the state schools and colleges make up 40 of the state budget. School districts already struggling to finance distance learning. You touch and have a revenue numbers like this without some level of cuts the great recession. Cuts meant teacher layoffs and lager class sizes it will be worse in the upcoming state budget we cant open schools are going to kind of get people the next biggest piece of the state budget pie is health and Human Services which help seniors and lowincome californians with programs like medicare now governor jerry browns much tell that Rainy Day Fund for emergencies wont be of much help. Our Rainy Day Fund isnt big enough to cover up the billion dollar budget shortfall weve got around billion total in reserve the independent nonprofit california budget and policy center warns against using only cuts to balance the budget that would hurt low and middle income californians and prolong the recession which means higher taxes are in play revenue increases are always going to be on the table right during the great recession. We saw temporary tax increases also in play more federal economic aid for the states. Theyre desperately going to need the assistance of the federal government it would be wonderful if you know nancy pelosi standing off to the side of the tape. But i dont know that thats going to happen, you know they say hope is not a plan in sacramento. Lonnie wong fox, 40 news.
