Jul 9, 2021 / 05:35 PM EDT DAYTON, Ohio (WDTN) – The Ohio Department of Jobs and Family Services reports that unemployment claims have significantly gone up in recent weeks. The reports show 10,900 Ohioans filed unemployment in the last week, over 400 more than the previous week. “10’s of thousands hundreds of thousands of Ohioans who’ve been hit by this. We don’t always see their struggles publicly, but I’ve seen a few of them myself and it’s unfortunate,” said Ohio Policy Matters Researcher Zach Schiller. These numbers come after Governor DeWine ditched the extra $300 dollars of unemployment benefits, over a month earlier than planned. This decision has caused multiple people to sue him.
