The Empire State’s unemployment rate stood at 4.4% in July — the worst among America’s largest states.
“This month’s joblessness stats are yet another indication that New York is heading in the wrong direction with Kathy Hochul and her far-left allies,” Zeldin said in a statement to The Post.
“Under one-party rule in Albany, New York has become less and less business friendly, with rising crime, high taxes, burdensome regulations, and far-left policies driving an exodus of New Yorkers leaving this state.” He added, “On November 8th, New Yorkers must make our voices heard, fire Kathy Hochul and change our ways, so businesses and good paying jobs have a welcoming home once again in New York.”
The Republican Governors Association also jumped on the announcement, noting that 16 of the 20 states with the lowest unemployment rates in July were led by Republican governors, including Florida and Georgia.Simultaneously, eight of the 10 states with the highest unemployment rates in July were led by Democratic governors — including President Biden’s home states of Delaware and Pennsylvania as well as Nevada, Michigan and Hawaii.
