Like most states, Kentucky's unemployment system is seeing a surge in applications as the state extends benefits to those workers whose jobs have been impacted by the COVID-19 global pandemic.
In a new move by the young administration of Governor Andy Beshear, the office of lieutenant governor is also serving as secretary of the Cabinet of Education and Workforce Development.
Lt. Gov. Jacqueline Coleman joins Cincinnati Edition to talk about unemployment and other COVID-19-related issues in Kentucky.
