BELLEVUE, Wash.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Beginning on March 12, former Microsoft CEO and founder of USAFacts, Steve Ballmer will begin a virtual college and university speaking tour to discuss USAFacts’ new State of the Union in Numbers report with students and communities across the nation.

This year’s data guide reveals insight into COVID-19’s impact on wages and steep job loss.
“Numbers are essential in determining where we stand as a nation,” said USAFacts founder and former Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer. “I believe that government data is the best way for Americans to understand the state of the country.
