As nationwide unemployment grows, one state aids job seekers
This week marked the 52nd straight week of high unemployment claims, with numbers rising as more than a million people filed for state and emergency federal unemployment benefits across the country. One state, Rhode Island, is working to reverse that trend by matching several thousand job-seeking residents with potential employers. Paul Solman has the story for our series, "Work Shift."
