Renew the expired Emergency Unemployment Compensation program.
Why is this important?
The bitter feud in Congress is hurting millions of Americans. Veterans with bachelor's degrees, single mothers and fathers, experienced professionals, and hard-working Americans are falling through the cracks--they are suffering.
Finding work, even a minimum wage job, is an extremely daunting task. Some Americans have to lie about their qualifications to even get an interview for a minimum wage job. Some Americans are past their 50th interview and are still looking for work.
Service members, especially, did not come home to sit on the couch and collect unemployment--they are suffering. Help them. Help us. Renew Emergency Unemployment Compensation. In this economic climate, it's a vital resource!
