(Washington, D.C.) Adult women’s unemployment rate in September dipped to its lowest level since February 2009, 7.0 percent, according to analysis by the National Women’s Law Center (NWLC) of jobs data released today. Adult men’s unemployment rate fell to 7.3 percent, the lowest level since November 2008. The economy gained 114,000 jobs in September; women and men each gained 57,000 jobs. Reversing a trend for the recovery as a whole, women gained 3,000 public sector jobs in September. Since the start of the recovery in June 2009, women have lost 383,000 public sector jobs overall, wiping out more than one-third of the more than 1 million private sector jobs they have gained....
Public Sector losses increased, but, we all know where that is happening and it isn't in the Blue States. Think teachers and unions.
