Marking the sixth straight month of losses -- Wisconsin loses 3900 jobs. Go Scott Walker...

...literally.



MADISON — Wisconsin lost 3,900 private-sector jobs in December to mark the sixth straight month of losses, the monthly report issued Thursday by the state Department of Workforce Development showed.

The report is bad news for Gov. Scott Walker, who pledged during the 2010 campaign to add 250,000 private-sector jobs over four years. Jobs during his first year in office were up just 13,500.

Still, the state’s unemployment rate dropped from 7.3 percent to 7.1 percent for the month and was down from 7.5 percent the month before Walker took office. The unemployment rate is based on a different survey than the jobs number.
