I guess we unemployed won't be seeing any more Fed relief $ before January

The Rs have no interest in helping us. It won’t happen until the Ds take over in Jan. They’ll need to repass the Heroes Act in the House and fast track it in the Senate.

Hope the $ is retroactive to August.

Thy have polling to and they know it looks bad. Do nothing and leave a mess a disaster for Biden and possibly a Dem Senate to deal with.

Just wants to burn it all down. Perhaps he has figured that he's likely to lose the WH and the Senate majority and he wants to leave a huge pile of shit for the Democrats to handle.

I think it's a stupid tactic, but it's also cruel and that's his favorite thing.

Best of luck to you.

I am applying for just. I have had interview. But I haven't gotten a job yet. 59 makes it tougher.

It's 39 weeks here in MI, with a max of $362 a week. It's not enough and not long enough. A deal has to be made! People are starting to lose everything, I'd like to see it go to 52 weeks immediately, and add at least $300 a week from the Feds.
