On April 9, 2020, at the daily Gov. DeWine's press conference on COVID-19, a reporter finally asked about unemployment. Lt. Gov. Husted said that web page needed for 1099, self employed, and gig workers to file for unemployment is projected to be up by mid-May. Yes, you read that correctly: Mid-May. Apparently having safety nets in place BEFORE they crashed the economy wasn't part of the planning process.
