If you are not a regular reader of the Oregon Department of Economic Analysis’s blog, you are missing out on great objective analysis of data from Josh Lehner. This week, Lehner reports that more Oregonians are working than was the case in 2019, just before COVID. At 81.6%, more Oregonians are working than at any other time this century.

You can read Lehner’s full post here. Enjoy reading some good news.
