As Americans vote in the 2024 national election, few issues are more prominent than the national economy. For the most part – especially in comparison to elections past – the economic news is extremely good. Earlier this month, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics released a report showing a strong labor market with growing wages, a lower unemployment rate, and the addition of 254,000 jobs to the economy.
And still, despite the good news, many people have yet to benefit from the rising tide. Recently in order to get a handle on the state of the economy – the good news and the continued challenges — I caught up with States Newsroom national economy reporter, Casey Quinlan.
