Another 3.8 million Americans filed for unemployment last week. In just six weeks, more than 30 million people have applied for jobless benefits.
Americans filed 3.8 million new jobless claims last week, the Labor Department reported Thursday, pushing to 30.3 million the six-week claims tally as the coronavirus pandemic battered the economy.

The Commerce Department reported Wednesday that the U.S. economy shrank at a 4.8 percent annual rate last quarter, which ended March 31, the sharpest one-quarter fall since the Great Recession, when GDP dropped 8.4 percent during the last three months of 2008.
