That’s the draw of New York City, she said, and part of the reason New Yorkers have tried so hard to adapt, to find the ways forward.

709,000 seek US jobless aid as pandemic escalates

Read full article: 709,000 seek US jobless aid as pandemic escalates

Last week’s count of new applications for unemployment benefits was down from 757,000 the previous week, the Labor Department said Thursday. The number of people who are continuing to receive traditional unemployment benefits fell to 6.8 million, the government said, from 7.2 million. That suggests that more Americans are finding jobs and no longer receiving unemployment aid. Government stimulus, in the form of federal unemployment benefits, aid for small businesses and checks to most individuals has largely run out. And unless Congress continues the extended benefit program, millions of jobless people will run out of aid entirely by year’s end.

But in recent days, she stepped into the middle of a bitter feud between Almagro and the leadership of the Inter-American Commission of Human Rights, or IACHR, the regions top rights watchdog.
