Minnesota’s job market shows signs of recovery with 13,000 new jobs in June—its third straight month of growth—thanks to targeted investments and small business support. Governor Walz celebrates the progress, noting over 95,000 jobs created since 2019 and rising wages. Yet, the state’s unemployment rate remains stubbornly higher than the national average at 4.4%, while labor force participation dips for the seventh month in a row. The education and health sector led the gains, but economists warn Minnesota’s job growth since 2018 has lagged behind the nation and many other states—creating a mixed picture of progress and lingering challenges.
