House Democrats Plan Rally for UI Extensions Next Week!
House Democrats plan a big push to extend unemployment insurance to millions of Americans who will lose coverage next year, a senior Michigan congressman said Friday.
U.S. Rep. Sander Levin, D-Royal Oak, said Democrats will hold a rally in Washington the week after the Thanksgiving recess to raise the plight of unemployed people who are soon to exhaust their benefits.
"The numbers are staggering," Levin said. "Historically there have never been so many long-term unemployed in this country. It's more than 1 million in January that will lose benefits."
U.S. Sen. John Thune, R-S.D., told reporters earlier this month Republicans will consider the proposal.

This article was sent to me via Facebook from the House Ways & Means Committee "Extend UI" page. Although there is nothing in this proposal for the 99ers, they cannot be ignored any longer, the numbers are growing and poverty is spreading. We have to do everything possible to make sure that all the unemployed are included in any legislation passed this year!

Re: House Democrats Plan Rally for UI Extensions Next Week!
I tweeted the 99ers letter to the entire Ways and Means Committee this afternoon and am working my way throught the list again. I will keep at it until they just say No, nothing for the 99ers. Until I hear that, I will keep this fight going.

Please all 99ers, make sure you get you information in, this rally does not include an extension for the 99ers. We want all the unemployed included.
