Mall of America to lay off more than 200 employees

The Mall of America said it plans to lay off more than 200 people and might have to extend the furloughs of up to 178 more.

The mall - like retail and entertainment establishments throughout the U.S. - has been hurt by stay-at-home orders and consumer anxiety over the coronavirus pandemic.

The mall has notified the Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development and Bloomington Mayor Tim Busse that 211 employees will be laid off by the end of September.
