This is about Unemployment Benefits Extension. Please read
Unemployment Benefits have been extended as of tomorrow

But some republicans are threatening this is going to be the last UI Extension so I emailed some of the Senators (Both Republican and Democrats) The following:

"I am very upset. I read online that some Republicans are threatening that this will be the last UI Extension (Unemployment Benefits). UI Extensions should be indefinite until the recession is over. How dare they say they will not pass another extension after this one that President Obama will sign into law on Friday, November 6, 2009. This is our salary until the recession is over or until we get a job. Keep in mind you have the money to pay your bills, you dont have to worry about not having any money. Please make sure this is not the last UI Extension"

I am so furious that they dont seem to realize that the Unemployment Benefits are our salary and we need them indefinitely. Jobs are very hard to come by and they dont understand this.

Also please if you can email and/or call your Senator and stress the above. Thanks.

VP, I think you should express your feelings to your representatives as often as you like. It is one of your rights as an American citizen.

But I think you should also be aware that there are many people out of work, and not all of those people are as lucky as you. Some of them (myself among them) do not qualify for unemployment benefits.

So who is going to pay our salaries?

I have been unemployed for nearly a year. I do not qualify for, nor receive, unemployment benefits and I also do not receive any other kind of financial aid or government assistance.

I appreciate your desire to keep your benefits coming, I truly do. I just have to say, I wish I had some, too.
