A recent uptick in Minnesota’s unemployment rate is raising the possibility that the state’s robust labor market may be faltering, and local business leaders are stumped about what comes next.
The state’s unemployment rate was 3.3% in August, a half percentage point higher than a year earlier. While employers in the state are still struggling to find employees amid a period of low unemployment both in Minnesota and across the country, many are trying to decipher the health of the economy and how it will affect their businesses.
A little surprised to see the WSJ use 'WTF' in a news article. But then again, wtf.
Could it be a leadership(?) in the U S Congress issue?

You have a legislature in St Paul concerned only with the metro area, and a metro area that makes it harder to get to work every year. Read the article about working for $50k per year here. The MnDOT and Met Council are putting barriers for people to reach good paying jobs.
We Americans love to wrong our hands don't we? Oh & the part about the 'decade long expansion' 🙄. Who knew it's been 10 years since everything got better 🤷♂️
Farms, and farm labor. That's the issue. These damn tarrifs are killing our agriculture from the inside out. It's affecting everything and no amount of Government welfare is going to fix it. Financially, our state is in a budgetary surplus and for like a decade. It's not us.
It’s actually very simple: the continued asinine economic policies of Dayton and Walz, coupled with brutal tax rates, are driving investment elsewhere. And Trump’s trade war isn’t helping agriculture.
