Mentioned by Jay Leno in his monologue tonight: calls from welfare recipients in Utah to the state office are being answered in India . . .

Same here in PA. I don't recall the Department, but it could have been for Labor & Industry, Welfare, or the higher education assistance group.
Err, oh, I just got the relevance of doing it for the welfare office.
Last year, officials in Indiana came under heavy criticism when it was disclosed that the state's Department of Workforce Development, responsible for helping unemployed workers find jobs, had hired a company based in India to do $15.2 million worth of computer upgrades to speed the handling of unemployment claims. Gov. Joe Kernan announced in November that that contract had been canceled.
