Building Bridges: Your Community and Labor Report
National Edition
Produced by Ken Nash and Mimi Rosenberg
**************
Unraveling the Unemployment Insurance Lifeline
with
George Wentworth, Staff Attorney, National Employment Law Project
At a time when U.S. corporations are stockpiling cash, it’s outrageous that
state lawmakers have the audacity to make jobless workers pay for decades
of irresponsible business tax breaks that ultimately undermined state
unemployment insurance finances. But, corporate lobbyists have ushered
through legislative measures, behind closed doors and with no public debate,
of cuts to state unemployment insurance programs when more people are out
of work for longer than any other period in generations. We have better wakeup
and smell the coffee, realize the consequences of what will be drastic measures
before our unemployment benefits are no longer there when we need them.
