Unemployment Benefits To Be Extended
Published: March 11, 2010
More federal aid is on the way for millions of out-of-work americans.
The senate has approved a bill that extends unemployment benefits to those out of work for more than six months and living in states with the highest jobless
rates.
If passed into law, it would tack on another 130 billion dollars dollars to the budget deficit over the next year and a half.

It’s about time that these things have taken action. More and more people are already in bad shape and only few people like Roxanne Spillett is receiving a good compensation. Hopefully, this bill will pass the screening because many are already in a tight situation right now.
