Gov. Doug Ducey (R) announced the change in a video message on Twitter Thursday. He said starting July 10, Arizona will no longer be paying unemployed workers an additional $300 a week.<\/p>\n<p>The Republican noted that while Arizona\u2019s economy is expected to gain 325,000 jobs by next spring, businesses are still struggling to find workers. Rather than paying people not to work, Ducey said he\u2019s incentivizing them to return to the labor market with a one-time $2,000 bonus.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">\u201cThe best social program is a job.\u201d \u2013 President Ronald Reagan<\/p>\n<p>Arizona is back to work!<\/p>\n<p>Effective July 10th, Arizona will no longer be paying the $300\/week federal supplement to unemployed workers, and instead we will be helping Arizonans get back to work. 1\/ <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/lNXPhTrWxm\">pic.twitter.com\/lNXPhTrWxm<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Doug Ducey (@dougducey) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/dougducey\/status\/1392892419931213826?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">May 13, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Ducey also said Arizona\u2019s efforts to eliminate barriers to work will include increasing access to childcare and expanding education opportunities for returning workers.<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/ken-bennett-auditors-getting-through-a-pallet-of-ballots-a-day\/\">Ken Bennett: Auditors Getting Through A Pallet Of Ballots A Day<\/a><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FILE \u2013 In this Thursday, April 15, 2021, file photo, Arizona Republican Gov.
