MORE COLA RETURNS
A few more lawmakers representing Northeast Pennsylvania said they will return their COLAs. Reps. Jim Wansacz, D-114; Eddie Day Pashinski, D-121; and Ken Smith, D-112; said it’s the right thing to do given the bad economic conditions.
JOBLESS RATE HIGH
This might not be news to people out of work but unemployment in the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre/Hazleton metro area catapulted three tenths of a percentage point to 6.8 percent in October, the highest it has been in a decade. For the second consecutive month, Northeast Pennsylvania was burdened by the highest unemployment rate among the commonwealth’s 14 metro areas. State College had the lowest rate, at 4.5 percent.
