Ideas from an economy standpoint:
I do think jobs is probably the right next step. The BLS data poses a challenge because it's monthly and we'd like to give more regular updates. So I want to focus on now-casting the numbers, which is a good statistical modeling project.

I have experience running surveys, and we'll have to pursue a funding model for survey recruitment, but I think that's something we could drum up.

Please add suggestions, additional things to track and we can create a complete list. Then, we can update the readme.md to include everything and create some more issues to handle grabbing the info.
