The Obama administration is announcing the start of a new strategy to curb nagging unemployment – allowing Americans to keep their benefits while trying out a job.

The program will be administered on the state level, with the Labor Department opening the application process Thursday for 10 model programs across the country.

The so-called Bridge to Work program was in fact a key part of the payroll tax cut package that President Obama negotiated with congressional Republicans in February.
