You Know I've called the NY Syracuse Congressman and Senators yesterday and got a letter from Sen. Schumer that said once all the Unemployed New Yorkers have collected 99 weeks He would submit legislation for a TIER V or extra weeks alot of good that does us who have exhausted our benefits and losing everything This is the way our politicians work for us? By that time we'll all be out on the street with no where to turn How nice to comtemplate this.
Once the current bill is passed, then we all have to focus on the 99 weekers. That issue is not even being discussed and WONT Be, unless people get a lot of media attention to it!
Just wondering everyone been hearing that this Bill the Senator voted on yesterday with a 60-40 win was targeted to the 99 weekers at least that what someone told that was listening to the news. Can anyone on here substantaite this or is it smoke being blown you know where? I would appreciate any comment regarding this. thanks
I just called Sen. Gillibrand's Syracuse office and spoke to a lady named jennie and asked her if this new extension included the 99 weekers nd at fist she told me it's suppose to than she said she don't know,but its suppose to and try to call the unemployment office which I did,but the line was busy.
Well I did call the UI and spoke to Amy who said it didn't include us ,but she wasn't sure of what all was covered in the bill she told me to call by Wed of this week and they should know more about what's covered soungs like one hand don't know what the others doing if you ask me. I guess we all are suppose to starve and fall into the night without fight don't bet on that one US F__KUP GOVERNMENT
I wish they would do something I've been e-mailing,calling and whatever I could,but it seems like we are a forgotten breed. It's like out of sight, Out of mind any more. I think we need to rally in the streets my fellow unemployed 99 weekers time to start revolting against this like we did in the 60's whose all with me? Time to start marching in the streets all overespecially when I just read on-line that millionaires were collecting unemployment, that really got my goat.
THANKS FOR THE LINK (NOT YELLING, LOW VISION)..I AM AT THE END OF TIER 4 AND RECEIVED NOTICE THAT I HAVE ONLY A WEEK AND A HALF LEFT IN MY ACCOUNT. IT TELLS ME THAT ILLINOIS HAS EMERGENCY STATE EXTENDED BENEFITS IN THE SYSTEM AND TO DO NOTHING AT THIS TIME. I HAVE BEEN OFF SINCE MID NOVEMBER OF 2008 AND EXPECT I HAVE THREE MORE MONTHS IN THE SYSTEM. WHAT HAPPENS NEXT? WHEN WILL I KNOW WHAT I HAVE FROM ILLINOIS EMERGENCY STATE BENEFITS? THANKS SO MUCH, JANDJANDS I WILL SIGN THE PETITION.
