economy. in january 2009, the economy was losing more than 800,000 private sector jobs a month. private-sector jobs, growth returned in march of 2010 and we have now had 18 consecutive month of growth. however, in august, we gained only 17,000 private sector jobs, which is clearly not enough. we face a very real threat going back into a recession. that is why i believe we need to take steps to generate near-term economic growth and jobs while we simultaneously address the long-term debt threat. the unemployment rate remains far too high and as of august the unemployment rate was 9.1%. long-term unemployment is up sharply. in august, long-term unemployment, those unemployed for 27 weeks or longer, with 3.9%. that is up dramatically from the .8% average over the period from 1948 to 2007. the median duration of unemployment is also up sharply, climbing to almost 22 weeks in august. we know that some of the drag holding back the recovery is caused by the nature of the recession that preceded it. e
