N. Pelosi said they know better, re: how unemployment compensation works.

In MD: 'In addition to being monetarily eligible, you must be unemployed through no fault of your own, able to work, available for work, looking for full-time work (unless defined by Unemployment Insurance as a part-time worker), and willing to accept a job for which you are qualified in order to collect benefits.'
