In our news wrap Thursday, U.S. job growth slowed in March.

In our news wrap Thursday, U.S. job growth slowed in March, due in part to late-winter storms. The unemployment rate held steady at 4.1 percent, where it's been for six months. Also, the governor of Arizona announced that he's sending 150 National Guard members to the U.S.-Mexico border next week in response to President Trump's proclamation.
