STATES SUING FOR UNEMPLOYMENT! Unemployment Extension UPDATE FPUC PUA Unemployment Benefits Rent
A recent survey from the online research firm Momentive found that over half of Americans think that the extended enhanced unemployment benefits should not be given out any longer.
The survey found: “Just over half of Americans — 52 percent — want the extra benefits to end immediately.”
They also found: “Of Republicans, 80 percent want the extra benefits to end right away, compared with 27 percent of Democrats.”
The study also showed that 30% of Americans want the benefits to end in September as planned, and just 16% want the additional benefits to continue indefinitely.
These figures display just how divided we are as a nation, with more than half of America not on board with such a great stimulus program like these vital extended enhanced unemployment benefits.
Meanwhile, a recent report from WalletHub showed which states across America are recovering the quickest from unemployment and the last 16 months of craziness.
The study looked at five key metrics, comparing the unemployment rate from May of this year to both 2019 and 2020.
