America 99ers Union calls for Michigan's unemployed job seekers, help for S-3706
As announced on MSNBC Ed Schultz show on September 21, the grassroots Americans 99ers Union, is calling for unemployed job seekers across America to take part in a fax/call in campaign, to pass Senator Debbie Stabenow (D-MI) S-3706-"The Americans Want to Work Act", legislation.

S-3706 would provide, if passed by both Houses of Congress, up to 20 additional weeks of unemployment compensation benefits for jobless Americans (99ers) who have exhausted the current available Tiers 1-4. In addition, the "Americans Want to Work Act" would provide up to a $2000 tax credit, as an incentive, for employers to hire the long-term unemployed receiving Tier 5 benefits payments.
