Four Weeks Later, Senate Unanimously Passes Bill Extending Unemployment Benefits
Wednesday, November 04, 2009 at 5:53 pm
Twenty-seven days, four votes and a long lesson in tedium later, the upper chamber has passed legislation extending unemployment benefits by at least 14 weeks in every state. The final tally was 98-0.
Similar legislation passed the House more than six weeks ago, but the bill has been held up in the Senate as party leaders did battle over a series of controversial GOP amendments. The final bill included only two amendments: a provision extending a popular tax credit for homebuyers, and another allowing businesses to recoup taxes they paid in recent years.
The bill now moves to the House, which will vote on it Thursday. Afterward, the proposal will travel to the White House for the president’s signature, which will make it law.
The benefits are not retroactive, so those whose checks stopped coming before the bill’s enactment shouldn’t hold their breath for back-pay. It’s not coming. But those folks will be eligible for at least 14 weeks of benefits moving forward. In states where unemployment rates are higher than 8.5 percent, the new benefits will run for 20 weeks.
For anyone wishing to relive the entire tedious saga, a brief(ish) chronology goes like this:
1. Sept. 22: The House passes its version of the unemployment bill, which would extend benefits for 13 weeks, but only in those states where jobless rates top 8.5 percent.
2. Oct. 8: Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) asks for unanimous consent to pass the Senate’s amended version of the House bill. Sen. Jon Kyl (R-Ariz.) objects, citing the absence of a cost estimate.
3. Oct. 13: Sen. Debbie Stabenow (D-Mich.) asks for consent to pass the bill. Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) objects.
4. Oct. 21: Reid files cloture on a vote to proceed to the bill.
5. Oct. 26: Reid asks for GOP consent to pass the bill. Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) objects.
6. Oct. 27: The Senate votes to proceed to the bill by a tally of 87 to 13.
7. Oct. 29: Reid asks for consent to pass the bill. McConnell objects.
8. Oct. 29: Reid files two sequential cloture motions — one on the Senate substitute bill and one on the underlying House bill.
9. Nov. 2: The Senate hops the first cloture hurdle by a count of 85 to 2. The 30-hour clock before the next cloture vote begins ticking.
10. Nov. 4: The Senate hops the second cloture hurdle by a count of 97 to 1. By a previous agreement, the 30-hour clock before the final vote had begun ticking about 12 hours before.
11. Nov. 4: A deal is struck between Reid and McConnell to disregard the remainder of the 30-hour post-cloture clock, leading to the staging of the final vote.

Congratulations, another 14 to 20 weeks of fat couch potato sitting. Wouldn't it be something if Obaaama made a conservative move and vetoed the bill. See you all in 20 weeks.

The reason Im here is because my good friend finally got justice and now can take care of his family.I see people like you whos life is so ROTTEN you wish hardship all…..woman,man and children.So on your way back home to Under Rock,Demint county you will get fired from your job.There will no benefits in it for you though,because you don't get benefits if you get fired.This will be your lesson to learn when it happens and the you aggervation you caused these people,believe pal thats exactly whats gonna happen to YOU!!

The measure now moves to the House, which passed its own benefits extension in September, giving an additional 13 weeks in high-unemployment states. The two bills must now be reconciled, though the House is expected to support the Senate's version.
Now that this legislation has passed the Senate, I will bring it to the House Floor for a vote as early as tomorrow,” said House Majority Leader Steny H. Hoyer of Maryland.

To all of the people who have posted here with me during this trying time, thank you. I have some tips for anone who is interested
Kraft corp is hiring in the Philadelphia and many other areas. i submitted an online application go to www. kraft.com and see if anything fits what you are able to do. i know a million apps every day but some of us may get lucky as kraft does Nabisco and a few other brands.
Also in the Philly are miller beer company but when you go on line it is listed a Mueller company
I also contacted a few temp agencies, they are overwhelmed with people looking for work but I submitted an application anyway, hopefully my 24 plus years of work history will help.
Now Mr. Conservative8 whatever I had gone back and forth for days between feeling like your callous and uniformed comments had to be the work of the Republican party or Satan himself, but at this point I do not lnow the difference between those two entities. I just want to say to you from all of us here who have put up with your ignorant ass….KISS OUR COLLECTIVE AND INDIVIDUAL ASSES YOU IGNORANT ON THE DOWN LOW DICK SUCKING ASS FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT.

I'll still be here. Good luck, you have 14 to 20 weeks of welfare bennys. No body is talking about your children except you. You have the time now, get to it master. You would think with that much education, especially in the medical field, you would be able to get a job. The healt care industry, vet health care is always looking for people. Time to pound the pavement now. I'm sure there is a lot of kittys and doggies that need a good hearted person like you to operate on them. Ruff ruff, meow, meow.

That is a really intelligent response. I hope you put the 14 to 20 weeks of free government bennys to good use. You will have plenty of time to update your resume and pound the pavement for that JC Penny Job. Actually, they are always looking for a good janitor after hours, or security guard. I did VOTE I, how did you know. I liked the extension on the first time home buyer credit, 8k. Now get to it boy, stand tall soldier. Short term fix.

My beef with the extension is this – when Obama does sign it into law, when do the benefits kick in? Immediately? Weeks? Month? When?
I'm in Alabama, if that helps anything.

Yeah, it was me .. I'll even type my reply here like I did on that forum
You said you were only going to tell me one thing, but then you said it twice without even using correct grammar. Anyway, I do think GOD is made up and a simple concept to explain the unexplainable for those who want to believe that right and wrong have an affect on the outcome of everything. You think that I don't deserve anything because I don't believe that GOD is real? You sound more like the very Republicans that have held this bill up and to me represent the core of the REAL problem in America. Religion.
Moron-da, Trace, & Okie .. You're the idiots that prove how naive religious people really are. I WILL get more benefits just like you and I will never thank GOD for anything … Especially what I work for.

Great comment. Great question, why does God, the Bible, Christianity and any other religion have to be rammed down are throut regarding the Senates decision on unemployment or any other bill that is on the agenda. Well, It is because, most of these morons are on the border of ending up like Jones Town. They love to preach there views in hopes that they will eventually get credit for being some sort of cult leader in a high position. Get real, God love the Christians, but save it for the sabbath. The shininglight guy needs to get a grip on reality. Its great to read the good book and follow the 10 commandments, just don't try and use it as a reason for the actions in our governments decision process. Now pound the pavement and try to get employed. GOD BLESS AMERICA. GOP JOHNSON

I have seen those online homebased businesses I almost fell sucker to them. They are feeding on poor people in desparation and I have never seen one that is free to get started. So if you are somewhere in that pyramid scheme of the one you posted I hope you get back at least what you invested. soon those schemes will be dealt with legally.

I hear so many references to God and I for one am a devout believer and whorshiper of the Almighty but, this is not a place to debate that. This a forum for people to blog about the article that has been written and what you infer from it or your opinion of it.
I for one have to say that the extension that should have already been into effect 4 weeks ago now going through more red tape (i.e. House and President) is just crazy. I mean there are people that have suffered so much and are so far behind in their bills that they are now deciding should I try to catch up where I am or make a dash for it and start over. I mean lets face it we are all starting over. New Jobs (hopefully soon) and so now what? I hope and pray (yes I pray) that everyone will start to show some more love towards everyone. You know if you are so devout like you claim here the words that come from your blog are very sinful for a christain. I mean we are suppose to greet hate with acceptance and ignorance with enlightenment. We are suppose to turn the other Cheek! So I say to the gentelmen sprewing his extreme athiestic views this may not be the appropriate venue for thet retorick and for the woman trying to defend your beliefs ,when your are devout you there is no need to digress like this.
Just know in you heart that yes it is something we are entitled to as US citizens but something greater than all of us made this thing go through. Thank God!
I hope that when this is all said an done you all never vote Repukebicon again. They are for the rich get richer and let the poor die in the gutters! Bottom Line!
Godd Bless us All and God Bless America.! Amen

You know that even blogging or posting and pretending to be a member of the Republican Senators or House is a crime so That little “GOP Johnson” at the end of each post may be a problem for you. I am a proud Johnson and am going to check into this. If you are the GOP Johnson you are trying to put out here you would not be allowed to come and post on this blog anyway due to ethics violations and the real GOP members may not be to happy with this, Sucker!

To be quite honest with you I feel that you points were valid but, the gramatical errors make this post incomprehensible for the untrained eye. I do believe you need to do a little more research when pretending to have two masters. I have one and you know how long it took me full time with summers? Well I don’t think you have a clue really. The point is this has been a trying time for all of us and we have all had alot of free time on our hands and in between job searching we take a few breaks to come here and vent. That is not what this place is for. It is to discuss in a civilized way the inferences you have from the article the man wrote for us. Stay on topic people!
Comment posted November 5, 2009 @ 6:11 am
“Yep Yep”…lol this is why people call you ignorant and do not want to hear from you. You attack anything you see for no reason and with no substance. You are shallow and really off you rocker. I would recommend that you seek professional help. This post of mine was a very respectful attempt to try and bring some cloture to your ignarant spewing and give you some insight. I can see you only see”Red” right now so take a valum and go sleep and lay off the meth. I think you are becomming dilussional. If you are so stressed out and need us to lay it all on then just keep it up! I am in a field that makes you little juvenile attempts to get a rise seem pathetic. Do you have a complete sentence in mind? They have a prepositional openeing and then a conclusive ending. It is basic grammer that is taught in grade school. You may want to seriousley go for some CE (continueing education) or even elemental secondary training.

Good luck to all in there job searches, this extension will help everyone thru the next couple of months. Hopefully that will be enough time for some to get both feet back on the ground and working.
Comment posted November 5, 2009 @ 7:13 am
You think you were being respectful? Have you ever even had a paper graded by a professor? Just in the first comment alone you spoke very bias and contradicting as well as condescending. More so in the last comment like you were fighting me with your vocabulary (thanks to grammar checker and spell checker although your spell checker must not be fully working right now). Even looks like you picked up a new word, given its relevance, you're using more often now. “Cloture,” which given its context is just ridiculous, but you even go as far as to call me juvenile? You're not as dumb as the previous individuals that preach the word of STUPID, but you are just as ignorant though. By this point you understand that THIS is no longer about the bill passing, but about idiots who praise GOD like you did through out your entire comment for this bill passing or ANYTHING for that matter. Who do you think you're intimidating saying anything to me about what you know. Your intelligence was compromised with your belief. I've never considered myself Atheist, but dumb asses like yourself make it hard to see how there could be a GOD of any kind. YOU ARE A HYPOCRITE AND DON'T REALIZE IT!!! You even tell others not to do what you, then right after, do yourself in the same comment just out of spite. You need the school and therapy dumb ass and do yourself a favor and reply to me, because I love your false sense of confidence. It's all so blinding AND entertaining and stop thinking you speak for more than yourself and maybe a few other morons on here. This comment came out long, but I affirm that YOU SUCK!!!

ShammedAmerican:
I do not mean any offense to you, But you have some grammar errors also, and in this time of stress all of us are frustrated, we sometimes mis-type because we are upset. But giving into the negative comments that some of them make, and some reply back with the same fuel is not right either, not saying you are doing it. I am guilty of it. But will no longer fuel the fire. I am here for the purpose of wanting to know what is happening and I have watched CSPAN2 diligently for weeks now, and am here so I can give information that some don’t have so I will post it. Again no disrespect intended but, again we the displaced workers are outraged and sometimes even the most educated make errors caused by the outrage that has taken since September to get H.R 3548 passed. Good luck to all in finding jobs

good this will be in house, they will sign it friday at the latest and president Obama should sign this by Sunday at the latest .maybe faster but Sunday is the best guess cause the weeknend is near so he doesnt need to ink this till then, now remember people you start getting paid when Obama signs this so say your state takes 3 weeks to get this started they will retro your pay to when Obama signs this into Law also the people who quilify will be the ones who have exusted their previous extensions of have quilified for extensions , this will be tier 3 its a 14 week amendment with a additonal 6 weeks for states that have a 3 month average of 8.5% of unemployment …….. Thats all I am gonna say about that now this goes to anyone who say well unemployment is only 10% that means its not effecting 90% of us working well I hate to tell you the realitly unemployment is really near 20% the unemployment figure you get is people reciving benifits you will see a spike in unemployment claims in the upcomming weeks , thats how it works ….Also I think the goverment needs a program with the employers to help people get jobs otherwise this will be the same problem come 20 weeks from sunday…

I just have a few things for you total. You are very bitter and confused. You are trying to sound all intelligent by pointing out people spelling mistakes well, you may want to try to use a “.” every now and then and form a complete sentence. The reality is that you have provoked alot of hastility and resentment by your ignorant comments and now you try to down grade anything you have seen on here telling you we don't care what you belive just don't tell us we are “dumb” for having faith and believing how we choose. We are the majority that do believe and are grateful. You must be really angry in your life for reason that go much deeper then this debate. Like I stated earlier you need help and I am not in the mood. You little child. Go find a signifacant other and vent on them. You will be in our prayers !! LOL! God Bless you and all the ignorant, biased, one sided idiots like you!

I read somewhere but thats just our internet speaking, if it gets passed today he will sign it tomorrow. I hope our DOL Depts. will have been prepared ahead of time. I hope it will be faster than 3 weeks but my friend at the DOL here says he has no info yet not to say his Superiors don't have any info yet. Gonna watch the house today and see their agenda for today. I have never watched the congress live until the last month. As it really concerns me now, but I will be watching from here on even after this is passed. Because I want to see what our elected officials are really doing for us. Even if I have to Tivo it when and if I get a job. FDR is probably doing somersaults in his grave now.

the house should approve the senates bill today, and it should move to the presidents desk and be signed by this evening. our problems lie with the assorted state offices making the funds available quickly. i'm in missouri, if all goes the way i see it i'll have my available funds by early next week. again, the timeline for recieving these much desrved and well earned funds will be in the hands of your particular state.

i'm an eternal optomist. i believe congress and the president were all waiting impatiently for the birdbrains in the senate to get their act together.
obama should sign the bill today.
but again, it will depend on the particular state offices how long it will take to get the money.

I want to thank everyone for being here in support of H.R. 1348. If it wasnt for you all I would have lost it like many of us here might have. Thankfully we have the internet as my folks did not in the 30's during the GREAT DEPRESSION!! You were all great.. I know it was tense, but it passed. Please keep in touch with the newer blog when it is posted. Let us know how your job hunting goes as I feel we are all part of a group that can relate to each other. WOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
I know I said I would not stoop to conservative895's level but where are you GOP JOHNSON? NOW YOU GET AN EXTENSION TOO I HOPE YOUR STOMPING THE PAVEMNT! sorry everyone I couldnt resist. good luck to all of you. and good again good luck in this economy…Trace1000 E PLURIBUS UNUM

I have cried all day thinking I can finally see the light at the end of this travesty. Now are they saying people who already ran out are not a part of this extension. I ran out 2 months ago. Oh Boy. If anyone knows who will be eligible please let me know.
Thanks

You are eligible for the benefits. It is retroactive in that it covers all persons who exhausted their benefits prior to the enactment of this bill. you dont have to worry. As far as the idiot who commented about pounding the pavement ignore that creep. You will get your benefits at the amount you recieve prior to exhausting your last benefit.
Comment posted November 5, 2009 @ 9:44 pm
You really need a reality check. Another wanna be preacher. You really are a shammed American, great screen name. If you had your way, you wouldn’t be saying God Bless American if all there was was democrats. Wake up idiot, they are trying to remove Christianity from all public places. If anyone is the athiest here, its you. Best thing you can do is suck on a exhaust pipe, breathe deep. Hugs, GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOPPPPPPPPP JOHNSON
GOP JOHNSON DELAY p.s. use some of that anal lube on your lips when you put them around the exhaust pipe.

This Great News for all the hard working Americans that are in this situation. I know that some of the Senators where right and there are people that will take advantage of any situation like this. There is coruption in every civil benefit offered through state and national levels however; realistically, most UE recipients are honest people that have fallen on hard times. No one wakes up one day and thinks ” hmmmm I can get by on 1/3 or what I was earning so let me keep drawing the UE instead of working”. That is the reality in our nation that people that have had this great news today should really all take advantage of the time alotted and maybe seek work in fields they would not think of as “their level”. I say what ever you can find as a job go for it! I am happy we all will have more time to appreciate lifes basic needs. I pray that we all find work again and this will be our last time to meet like this. Remeber when the elections took place Tuesday? Republicans did win seats and that tells me that even through this situation people have not learned anything but, it will become clear what republicans are when we are all standing in a soup and bread line while they eat steak and shrimp and laugh at us.

A professor, learn to spell. The Republicans will probably take the next election.
Reality check, a laid off wanna be professor, really. There are many jobs at colleges and universities. You must be one of those day school professors. Make sure you put plenty of that anal lube on your lips for the big exhaust pipe.
Lots of love, GGGGOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOPPPPPPPPPPP JOHNSON

I can rest easy now, my benny package is on its way. Its nice to know that this
extension applies to conservative and republicans. I think most of these left wing idiots out here, think this extension applies to them exclusively. Wake up, the republicans will probably sweep the next election. You blathering iddiots, especially the veterinarian troll should probably start worrying about that. Stock up on plenty of valium and psychotropics for this big event. You will all need it. Your favorite buddy, Big Daddy

I knew the moment I said if you have ever had a paper graded by a professor that you would take full advantage of being a real nobody online and try to pretend you were a professor yourself. Your comments are so misspelled and grammar erroneous that if you were a professor you would have to be the Nutty kind, but most importantly you WOULDN’T BE TALKING TO ME AT ALL!!!! Especially with your constant bickering back at me and you could NEVER condescend me from a true place of higher education since you show far less than I. You even name yourself ‘ShammedAmerican’ and yet you act patriotic by saying, “God bless America.” You STILL have no idea what you’re preaching about and then you try to insult me on top of it which is just some seriously sad shit. I think our quarrel has become quite clear though. You think who ever has the last word wins. You go after the last word at relentlessly and therefore you find comfort in feeding your ego. You will even do what I’ve seen done several times now and that is you reply hastily at first, then again with some kind of condescending insight where you try to low blow and antagonize. You hypocritically call me what you will for arguing and yet you are doing the very same with each word. You’re an idiot and an easily provable one at that. You should pray to your god to make you less stupid, but I don’t expect that anything will change. Do you realize that your somehow enlightened quest to argue against me has brought you NO back up and not ONE person has ‘liked’ any of your comments. You should just try shutting the fuck up for once since I DO use complete sentences you retarded make believe professor of nothing. Now report this clown!!!

You REpubs (or are you freaks fundamentalist like your party is quickly becoming?) have no new ideas, so mindless garbage is the order of the day?
Your message is lost in the modern age. We are no longer satisfied with status-quo. You meatpuppets are apparently satisfied with letting the country fail, seeing as you only want what got us into this morass in the first place. What's worse, you would let it fail just to blame an opposition party. That's a heavy price just to prove a point.
It's why we don't think much on your party's whining. That's all it is. You have no new ideas that will BENEFIT this country, just more elitist legislation to benefit those who don't need help, and shit on those who do.
Please don't call yourselves American. You fundamentalists have tried to subvert the intent of the Constitution, and make what it says at Ellis Island a surreal joke.
I am an Iraq War vet, and I didn't fight for what you wackos believe in. Lindsey Graham will be proven right-keep up this ridiculous nonsense, and the Republican party will only be a club.
I know this will garner a response, these mental defectives have to respond, like pavlov's dogs. The truth just pisses them off. See? They're predictable, too.
