During recent remarks, Yellen pledged to use the department to address many issues, including those of race, gender disparity,and the climate crisis.

About 1.434 million Americans filed unemployment claims last week as states issue another shutdown due to spikes in coronavirus cases. The GDP also crashed to a 32.9% annualized rate, which is the biggest drop on record. Overall, the GDP dropped 9.5% between the first and second quarters. But we have to remember the GDP report contains numbers between March and June. It doesn't tell us what is happening now or tomorrow.
