Neel Kashkari: The Unemployment Rate

NPR

In The Moment … May 18, 2020 Show 819 Hour 1

The recent release of the April jobs report put the nation's unemployment rate at 14.7% and showed a loss of 20.5 million jobs during the month.

Neel Kashkari was a virtual guest for last week's Morning Fill Up hosted by Matt Ehlman of the Numad Group.
