TERRE HAUTE, Ind. (WTHI) - Officials with the Indiana Department of Workforce Development held a news conference today.
They addressed Hoosier concerns and frustrations over unemployment benefits.
Indiana s unemployment checks stopped on June 26th, but now they re back up and rolling. For some folks in the Wabash Valley, the process of getting that assistance hasn t been easy.
According to the Indiana Department of Workforce Development, this time last year, 11.2 percent of Hoosiers were out of a job. Now that number is down to 4.1 percent. Since March 2020, the state has distributed 8-point-6 billion dollars to 875,000 people. So what took so long for benefits to start back up? The department says it had to reach out to the U.S. Department of Labor.
