Post Falls economics talk outlines how labor market has 'run out of juice'

Samuel Wolkenhauer says local scene stronger than national

At a Connect4lLunch event Tuesday, Idaho Department of Labor economist Samuel Wolkenhauer spoke of the “eroding” job market and expressed hopes that Idaho’s economy can stay resilient in the coming months. “Nationally, the economy is softening but locally, we’re still showing strength month after month, so we hope to keep defying that trend,” Wolkenhauer said.
