State Senator Brian Jones of Santee has released a new installment in his "Are You Kidding Me?" video series. The series questions government actions and decisions perceived as illogical.

In the latest edition, Jones addresses the increase in unemployment claims in California. He highlights the paradox where employers struggle to fill vacant positions despite rising unemployment figures. According to Jones, one reason for this situation is that individuals can earn more from supplemental unemployment benefits than by taking available jobs.

"Are You Kidding Me?" aims to provoke thought and discussion on these issues. The video commentary is accessible online for both viewing and listening.
