MADISON, Wis. -- Wisconsin's unemployment rate dropped to 8.2 percent in May, its lowest level in more than a year.
The state Department of Workforce Development released the seasonally adjusted number on Thursday. Democratic Gov. Jim Doyle said the lower rate reflects the hard work being done to recover from the recession.
The monthly report shows that Wisconsin added more than 40,000 jobs in May.
Unemployment was 8.5 percent in April. The May rate is the state's lowest since March 2009.
The national seasonally adjusted unemployment rate for May was 9.7 percent.
