Note: Release of data for September 2025 forward is delayed indefinitely due to the the suspension of federal government services, including the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). During the shutdown period, BLS and, to a large degree, its cooperative state programs, are not collecting or publishing data. Updates will start again when the federal government resumes operations. The release dates above will be updated as they can be determined.
