Stop the sequester cuts for emergency unemployment benefits
Why is this important?
My wife is collecting emergency unemployment funds and the federal budget cuts known as sequestration require states to trim federal benefits known as Emergency Unemployment Compensation by roughly 10 percent. Our citizens who are currently unemployed should not have their funds cut especially with the weak job market. Once again, citizens who can least afford it are burdened with paying the federal debt. Tell congress to stop exploiting the poor and unemployed and find another way to take care of their debt.
