Abstract

This second report from the Economic and Fiscal Health Impact Group of the IGPA Task Force on the Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic delves into the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic has had on the employment picture in Illinois. The report finds that the current recession differs from past ones in key ways. Perhaps the biggest difference is the continued public health threat COVID-19 presents, which might cause Illinois residents to continue to limit their economic activity.
