From Robert Marus:
Mayor Vincent C. Gray today welcomed new figures from the federal Department of Labor showing a significant drop in the District?s unemployment rate last month. The rate stood at 10.6 percent in November ? a drop of nearly half a percentage point over October?s 11.0-percent rate.
?
?Although we have a long way to go, I am encouraged by this significant drop in the unemployment rate,??Mayor Gray said.??This is a validation of our work to grow the economy and create jobs ? but I will not stop until every District resident who wants a job has a job.?
?
The federal statistics show the District gained 3,200 jobs in October, for a total of 719,000. The private sector added 4,000 jobs, while the public sector payrolls were reduced by 800 jobs.? The numbers are drawn from the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) through its monthly survey of D.C. employers.?
?
Since January, the total number of private-sector jobs in the District has increased by 3.7 percent, or 17,100 jobs.?
