Virgina, New Mexico, and California saw the biggest rises in claims while Texas, Illinois, and Kentucky saw the biggest drop in claims…

Despite the positive news, only a net 10k Americans fell of Pandemic-based benefits

We suspect that will accelerate shortly as states drop the handouts… or, like the eviction moratorium, will it be extended?
