About 22,000 state employees are out of work because lawmakers failed to negotiate a state budget. Most state employees believed the shutdown as inevitable. They differed widely in their expectation of how long it will last, and how they will cope if the stalemate goes on long.
Nicollet County has the highest percentage of state employees of any county in the state, 9 percent of job force. It's home to the St. Peter Regional Treatment Center, which employs about 1000 state workers. Nearly 90 percent of those workers have been ruled essential state employees and will continue work through shutdown. The county dodged a bullet, but even with that bit of good fortune people are still upset.
Debie Tsuchiya of Bloomington was laid off from her job as a health care fraud investigator at the Department of Human Services. She doesn't expect the shutdown to last long.
"I'm quite hopeful this is going to resolve in a week. That's my bottom line," Tsuchiya "So, I'll never get any unemployment."
The state continues to process employment benefits during the shutdown, but officials say the soonest state employees would receive any payment is July 17.
Tsuchiya will apply for unemployment next week, following a directive to state employees to stagger their applications based on their social security numbers.
The state Department of Employment and Economic Development reports a seven-fold increase in applications for jobless benefits compared to last week.
