PA or Texas: Which State Has The Higher Unemployment Rate?

The Pennsylvania unemployment rate of 8.0 % in February is lower than the 8.2% unemployment rate in Texas.  See http://www.bls.gov/ and the Regional and State Unemployment Report for February.

Governor Corbett may want to rethink that line in his budget address about making Pennsylvania like Texas. 

How about celebrating Pennsylvania, our values, and our strengths?  Our economy as of February was doing better than the nation as a whole and better than that of Texas
