미 지난주 실업수당 청구 384만건…6주새 실직자 3천만명 넘어

Unemployment continues to be a serious issue in the U.S,... as first time filings for unemployment benefits hit 3-point-eight-four million last week,... bringing the six-week total to over 30 million Americans.
While the pace has slowed since last month,... experts say current unemployment claims could be undercounted by as much as 12 million,... as those who are eligible for benefits are not getting them due to their inability to file or other roadblocks.
Among the states that have seen the most number of unemployment filings,... Washington showed the biggest gains over the past week,.. with more than 62-thousand.
