The National Conference of State Legislatures published a report on "The Pandemic’s Effect on the Economy and Workers" that examines economic data and workforce trends following the emergence of COVID-19. The report shows how the pandemic has accelerated the adoption of telework and digital services, which present new employment opportunities for people with disabilities, and features federal and state responses to the pandemic. The report is the first in a series developed in collaboration with the State Exchange on Employment & Disability (SEED) on the opportunities and challenges stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on the employment of people with disabilities.
