so... that correlation between wages and job-hirings

[butters]

Alabama: Ivey takes a bow for 'supporting businesses' as the workforce increases at great rates, completely failing to mention the exceptional wage rises that jussssssssssssssssssst could be the driving force behind them:

While the state’s preliminary, seasonally adjusted unemployment rate remained at June’s 2.6%, the size of the state’s civilian labor force swelled to 2,291,962, the largest on record, and an increase of 47,818 compared to July 2021.

Wages have been increasing as well – hitting the second highest level on record. Average weekly wages across the state hit $1,005.34 each week in July; with the trade, transportation, and utilities sector and business services sector setting records; TTU workers brought home an average of $820 each week, with business services workers bringing home an average of $1,332.54 each week.

"Alabama's record-low unemployment rate is continuing to hold steady, and we are continuing to see other record-breaking employment statistics, month after month. People are working in Alabama in record numbers, and employers are adding jobs in nearly all major industry sectors, gaining more than 34,000 jobs since last year Wages are increasing in Alabama as well. We're seeing the second highest weekly wage rate in history, an increase of nearly $28 per week."
Alabama Department of Labor Secretary Fitzgerald Washington

there's no 'labour shortage', the workers just wanted to be paid the kind of wages they can afford to live on.

It is a red state so it's going to be better off in some metrics than blue states, but it remains one of our poorest states. We will find out however that Biden's new Inflation Reduction Bill will grossly undermine any newly emerging positive factors coming out of their economy.

This is the dumbest take on the defense of a shotty red state I've seen.

They suck...no matter which party is in charge federally.

Admit that or stfu

ivey takes another bow... for doling out money President Biden made sure was there and she voted against

Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey on Tuesday awarded an $82.45 million grant for what she said will be a transformative project to expand broadband service in the state.

“In 2022, being able to be connected at home, work or on the on go is absolutely necessary, and this is certainly key to making that a reality," Ivey said.

Funds for the project are being provided through the American Rescue Plan, a sweeping COVID-19 rescue package signed into law by President Joe Biden.

How did a governor vote against a bill?

Great to see Alabama’s economy doing well.

Wages increase cause no one wants to live there. Supply and demand. They have to pay more.

you're right, my error... she didn't vote against it but did speak out against it on several occasions. She may have wanted the cash to throw around but wouldn't openly support efforts to get it passed or bolster public perception of democrats&Biden's presidency.
