Tom Corbett, Pennsylvania Governor: Drug Users Boosting Unemployment Rate
Posted: 04/30/2013 1:49 pm EDT
Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Corbett (R) on Monday addressed some worrisome employment figures in the state's March jobs report, saying that job applicants who couldn't pass drug tests are "a serious problem" for Pennsylvania.

"There are many employers that say, 'we’re looking for people, but we can’t find anybody that has passed a drug test,' a lot of them," Corbett said during an interview on Radio PA's "Ask the Governor" program. "And that’s a concern for me because we’re having a serious problem with that."

The lagging job numbers could signal additional trouble for Corbett, who has been slumping in recent polls. A survey taken in mid-April showed the governor, who is up for a second term in 2014, trailing all three potential Democratic challengers in the poll.

The latest approval ratings poll similarly shows Corbett struggling for support, with a 47 percent disapproving of the governor's performance and 38 percent approving.
