Well, as it stands at the moment, anyone that is let go for "no reason" can claim for UI as it was through no fault of their own - but I really think you're pushing it to expect that an employee should be able to leave for any or no reason and still be entitled to be paid UE compensation. An employee has the "right" to leave but shouldn't expect to be compensated for having no employment in that case.
UE is meant to be a safety net not a hammock - sorry. UE is for people who WANTED to keep working but were let go.
Just my opinion.
Why do you believe that UI that conforms to at-will employment laws, a federal doctrine, and our Ninth Amendment is, "wrong"?
Shouldn't we be "legal" to our own laws, simply because we would then be moral enough to deny and disparage less fortunate illegals?
You may have missed the point about at-will employment relationships; they are no-fault, only for-cause employment relationships have "fault" liability.
Our elected officials seem to have given us their answer ... "they don't care" ! If they did care they would have already created a tier 5 by now, they are fully aware that these families have been with no income and the unemployment triggers that they had set are still above 8.5% unemployment rate. The elected officials have abandoned their own people, the hardest hit victims who have been unemployed the longest, its a disgrace...and the President and the Democrats are to blame for not writing a Tier 5 bill by now.
Sadly, I have to agree with this post.
As a 99'er, I feel the Full Force of Their Slap To The Face.
As Well As Their "Scewed" Number Keeping, as the True Numbers Have Never Been Reflected = We Are Now In Recovery = Right!!!!

Well, the wheels seem to have fallen off the "recovery summer" bus.
Or maybe The Obamas are just too busy with their vacation plans - 30 rooms in a 5-star hotel in Spain, 10 days on Martha's Vineyard... Can these people really be this out-of-touch?

Just sayin' - Clinton would at least be pretending to "feel our pain". Maybe it's just me, but under the circumstances extravagant taxpayer-funded vacations just don't seem appropriate. But they will make terrific campaign fodder.
"Recovery summer" was a tasteless joke from the beginning...

You can always write your state, elected representatives to government and petition for redress of grievances concerning unemployment compensation that conforms to at-will employment laws in any at-will employment state. Why expect our federal Congress to "legislate in all Cases whatsoever" outside of DC and other federal property, if they don't need to.
