Support House Bill 676: Extend Unemployment Benefits For 37,000 North Carolinians
There is an ongoing jobs shortage in North Carolina. Workers who lost their job in the Great Recession through no fault of their own are still struggling to make ends meet and find new opportunities.
One of the key supports for workers who have been unemployed the longest is the Extended Benefit program. Currently, this program is entirely paid for by the federal government and provides 20 weeks of benefits for workers who have lost their job through no fault of their own.
In order to keep this program in place, North Carolina policymakers must change the rules governing this program and allow the program to look back over three years to assess the level of unemployment. This would keep the Extended Benefits triggered ON in North Carolina.
Contact your member of the House and urge them to support House Bill 676.
In addition, reach out to the Speaker of the House and Senate President to make sure they know that supporting workers who are out of work is critical.
