We need more jobs, and this could help bring in more jobs. We're on a fixed income, so (not increasing rates is) important.

Next week's jobs report will be key to the income data and need to be watched as much for that reason as for the unemployment rate and job growth, ... Another month of weakness in the hours worked and wages data would be worrisome.

LEAP is intended to help low-income residents pay their bills, not cover the whole amount. Of course, for the poorest of the poor, those with little or no income, we try to cover as much as possible.

Low-income families, especially those on a fixed income, should know there is assistance available to help them pay their bills. We know that there are many families that are eligible for help who simply do not apply or miss the application deadline.

This is a mock job interview to get them ready for entry level jobs. Hopefully when they apply for their dream jobs they will be more prepared.
