[...] Extension of Unemployment Benefits Stalled in House « The Washington Independent [...]

It seems that our lawmakers are only looking out for themselves when it comes to casting so called tough votes.I often wonder how concerned they would be about the deficit if they were out of a job and looking for government assistance. I think they would have a differant out look on life. Just wondering????

They need to pass Tier 5 and they are not even talking about that. This bill doesn't do anything for the long term guys.

30,000 people have added their voice to this concern here. this is the 5th largest action to ever hit Change.org and will soon be the 4th largest.

As far as our Repulican lawmakers are concerned they havent worked since Obama took office, but they are still getting paid every month. If they were working for any other company they would all be fired! I don't think they ever thought of that.

There wasn't a question when it came to bailing out big bank business (the rich) but when it comes to helping regular people oh well. We need to start voting differently. No cared where the money was coming from when they bailed out the big banks that were too big to fail. The unemployed can just move into the streets I guess.

They will pass it.. they want to enjoy a long comfy holiday weekend on their yachts…. you know…as the rest of us struggle to buy a pack of hotdogs to celebrate…am just saying.

If the Congress persons were out of work and looking for jobs and running out of their last dollars and trying to explain to their kids that there are going to be hungry days ahead……what then …would the extension speed through? You bet it would! They are comfortable with their “guaranteed salaries” because they are “owned” by the banks and the insurance companies and they will whore themselves out to those interests before they will consider the plight of the working person!

WHAT HELL IS WRONG WITH THE HOUSE AND THE SENATE? THERE ARE MILLIONS OF UNEMPLOYED PEOPLE WHO WANT TO WORK, BUT CAN'T FIND WORK!!! WE ARE NOT ASKING FOR A HAND OUT. JUST SOME HELP!!! VOTE FOR TIER V.

The other problem everyone seems to have ignored is many are not recieving the 4th tier of benefits because their state has been hovering slightly below the 8.5% limit in which to recieve the last tier. How did Government arbitrarily pick this percentage number and since when does 8.5% unemployment signify a good job market? Unemployed is unemployed. This Government does not care for it's citizens losing everything. American Government is helping Haiti financially in their crisis, we are giving Greece monitary assistance in their national finacial collapse and yet our own Goverment gives the middle finger to it's own people suffering to survive ever single day. It's an absolute shame…

If that's what you think then you're disillusional! It seems that ALL OF CONGRESS DEM'S AND REPUBLICANS are in this for the big businesses. The fact that they are stalled tells me that they do not have the ear of the people they are supposed to represent. I for one will hold any politician accountable for their actions and this includes the President who has not said a blasted thing about it! I also pledge to make sure I campaign against ANY incumbent looking to be re-elected.
You've helped people abroad with Billions, you have waited to argue a point that should have been discussed long and you have FAILED millions of americans who are struggling everyday just to find a job.

Seems like they are willing to bail out everyone but us. We need to remember this come election day.

Politricks at its best. The only thing these folks are worried about is their political survival and their publicly funded better than most pensions. For 99ers, a great majority of whom are at or nearing pension age, its like crabs in a barrel – senior piliticians will climb over us in order to get theirs and it doesn't matter if we perish.

they need to get it together now not tomarrow

Well if they dont pass it, maybe it's time to start a new revolution a little early….fuck the tea party……..the hell with party lines…..I'm talking about real hard working americans coming together to throw the rich out. THEY ARE THE MINORITY who've screwed us out of jobs, houses, investments and yet we're the ones who suffer. in this america you cant be a player in the game unless your rich. And if your a player in the game then youre really a pawn whose on the take. Everyones busy talking, no one is busy doing. One way or another, mark my words a real revolution is coming.

Folks: There is something that strikes me about Senator Bunning's manner of speaking. See if you see anything of note in his speech. He did complain about missing a sporting event because he had to be tied up in the Senate.
http://thinkprogress.org/2010/02/26/bunning-bas…

A message to the House and Senate; we will all be arriving with our children, grandchildren, and pets to stay at your house. Hope you have lots of food and blankets. Some of us really……. want a job and have for a long time. Do yo think as AMERICAN CITIZENS that we do not understand work ethic. None of us want this situation. We were born in the USA and now our own government process, not our President, who has morals and ethics, is starving and destroying the people who have worked to make this country strong. Support your voting citizens. Or perhaps we need to stop paying your salaries and take your jobs and see how you feel about it. Without this extension millions of people will be in the streets; so congratulations if you choose to turn the USA into a third world country. Oh yeah, we help those people, so who is going to help US citizens when our country turns their back on us. Perhaps we can take back some of the big corporate bail outs of millions of dollars and feed the unemployed. Now thats a thought. Vote your conscious if you have one

For those individuals talking of voting out these individuals because they have failed you is so stupid at best. Do you really think the next fool in-line will treat you any better or different. If you do, then you deserve to be treated like sheep and nothing more. They don't give a crap about any of us and that is any Dem or Rep, they are in it for their own well-being and nothing more. As Uprising pointed out, a Revolution may be the only way out of this. They do it in every country but here, as people are too LAZY to stand up for what they believe in and would rather have the T.V. wash over them while they sit in their recliner……….Wake up people………..Bitching, hoping and praying will get you only so far, action is what is needed………….

They think if they don't create new benefits the problem will go away. It will only multiply as untold numbers exhaust the 99 weeks.Whose country is this? The rich and entitled. These morons who “represent” us spend billions and billions on war and have the audacity to deny people benefits or jobs.
It has ot be one or the other benefits or jobs. Unemployed Americans are being portrayed as lazy and good for nothing. How long can this be allowed to go on?

We needs Tier 5,6,7,8,9, and 10 this Recession will take 8 years to recovery.

You can count one more foreclosed home if this doesn't pass!

I am so sick of the Congress and House don't care about the people that put them in office . They just care about want party they are going to. Stop playing with people lives and give us the trier 5 or give us jobs problem would be solved.

I think all of the people that are 99's should go to Washington and camp out on the steps of Congress and the White House until they help the working people.

I'm a republican but if they keep playing with my much needed bennies I may have to change colors. One in 10 are out of work give us a break!!!!

You hit the nail on the head Steve.

MG YOU ARE ON THE MARK….. Congress needs to Remove the High Unemployment Period restrictions and the deadline on Tier IV first, and then add a 5th tier that is not connected to the unemployment rate, or is at least tied to the UNDEREMPLOYMENT rate. OVER HALF OF THE STATES HAVE NO TIER IV because there unemployment rate is less than 8.5%.
You CAN NOT qualify for Tier IV (EB), IF your state is at 8.5% average unemployment or less for 3 months. These rates are adjusted on very subjective data, based on estimated migrant and seasonal farm workers and as people run out of benefits, they are no longer considered unemployed, and FALSELY drop the Unemployment rate.
The individual states unemployment rate does not matter if you are one of the people that has never been without a job, never drawn unemployment before, are trying your best looking hard for a job everyday, and are still on the verge of losing your home and being on the street with no income. Everyone please contact your politicians and local news channels until this gets the proper attention. Call and write every day. This last bill is nothing more than a deadline extension with huge restrictions tied to the unemployment rate. Just lip service during an election year.
I still can not understand why, while hundreds of thousands lose benefits each week, the Senate wants to draw a fiscal line in the sand over unemployment benefits! Two unfunded wars, generous bank and corporate bailouts, and unfunded tax breaks are not a problem for Congress, but once you get unemployment funding on the table then all kinds of fiscal responsibility come to bear. While the President and Congress are throwing in to save the world, the unemployed are helping the economy that he is trying to repair…by spending their checks. Moody’s Economy.Com economist shows us the statistics. For every dollar that the government spends on the unemployment line, $1.63 of economic activity is created. I bet we as tax payers, do not get a 63% return on investment from the banks, the auto industry, or Greece!!!!!!!!!

I have heard that the politicians, on both sides of the isle, want the UI benefits to lapse. Even though people would still be unemployed, they would fall off of the unemployment roles, thus making the unemployment rate APPEAR to be lower. This allows the states to deny Tier IV or EB benefits. The politicians are playing political games with our lives. Lets tie up their phone lines and make appointments to bring their offices to a stand still until they listen iF THEY WONT LISTEN, LETS MEET AT THE FRONT GATE OF THE WHITE HOUSE AND REFUSE TO MOVE!!!!!!!!!

All of there numbers are B.S. they aren't counting all of us that hve run out of our benefits. The real numbers are in the high teens.

Me, too. I don't want to lose my home. I am scared that I will, I thank God that I have been able to hold on this long. I have been applying to all kinds of jobs and getting little or no response. I am signed up with 7 temp agencies and still no job.

The Dow has been plummeting once again as the 99ers face poverty. I guess Washington will see how bad it's really going to get if they kick everyone else off of benefits all at once. I guess they'll give the banks another bailout as foreclosures rise to unprecedented levels. I just hope the welfare system can handle the volume they're about to receive.

I will be driving without insurance in a week to look for a non existing job with 7 dollars in food stamps left if congress thinks i'm going to lay down and die I will not go alone I have been a good american but circumstances have forced my hand

I have dear friends in the same boat. I'm retired military and it makes me sick to see how the American people are being treated. I saw first hand in the Middle East, where and how are money is being spent. At the same time we are fighting and giving our lives for the American people and in return Major Corporations are the only ones benifiiting from our loss of life…….Semper Fi

this bill will also provide concurrent receipt for military veterans,pass the damn thing!!!!!

And now you see what happens when you vote that way. The party of “personal responsibility” laughs at you, knocks you on the gutter and grinds their heel in yo fukkin face. Tell me, how does that feel?

Every person who voted that way needs to think long and hard and remember this next time.

Folks, time to think of a different way to have our voices heard! It seems like we have been ignored. It's time to stop begging and get things done. The “forgotten ones”, we, the long-term unemployed must get together and march! Let the rest of the people know our reality because most people in our country don't know it. http://www.unemployed-friends.com, Forum, is a good place to organize, State by State. This' the time, if we want things done, we must get them done ourselves, our families depend on us, and only we know what we really are going through! Let's take our country back, God Bless America, God Bless the American people! United, we will survive!

All these comments are true But I dont believe anyone in congress will be reading them. Its ashame.We need congress to read these comments from hard working tax paying americans. If you watch c-span you will see how they spend their day on trivial matters such as renaming post offices. They should get off their butts and do some meaningful legislation and get this country back on its feet.Watch c-span and you'll see them walking back and forth all day shaking hands and patting each other on the back. What a joke!

We need to add something on the Ballot if the Senators and Congress are not doing what we want we can remove them from service before the term is up.They still think they are boss. They still are not getting into their thick skull that we are the boss.

What I honestly find insane is the fact that NOBODY on the news is covering this. I mean it is like it just isn't happening. Who gives a SH*T that Jesse James cheated on his wife.. I mean seriously. I turned on CNN, HLN and MSNBC tonight and that is ALL they were covering. Millions of people are losing everything and every online article is about these idiots that are deciding our fate are worried about getting home for a much needed recess.. it is mindblowing..and I guess we are finding out just what politics and politicians are made of…a big fat paycheck for them..I honestly dont understand…BUT kharma really is a bitch..that I have faith in…yes indeed

I really dont get what they are doing…millions are losing everything..most importantly their pride..when you can't even give your kids the basic things they need..thats devastating. I hope they enjoy their little recess and have a lovely time. They can leave us hanging if that is what they choose..kharma ain't nothin' to mess with..that much I have faith in…

Why can’t this money be used for extended ENEMPLOYMENT?

For the first time in my 46 years I am scared. I never thought my own country would let me down like this. In the past we have bailed out every country in need for almost every cause but now we cant help millions of our own.? The politicians are playing with the well being of many hard working Americans like this is some sort of game. Why would they possibly wait untill the last possible week to even consider this bill?

President Obama has the executive power to resolve the Tier-5 situation. All he has to do is declare those states with high and chronic unemployment numbers as DISASTER AREAS. What’s the difference in a natural disaster (Tornado, Hurricane etc) and this economic disaster? This way, he could bypass congess and resolve this matter.

Lets cut the politician wages back to the wages of the Truman years and see if they can live the way they live now…..we know they wouldn't make it…but that is what they are expecting us to do is live on nothing. Just think how much money the country could save if they would cut the politician wages!!!!!!!!!! Since we are their employer I vote to cut their wages to $30,000 a year and if they can't do the job they were hired to do on that wage then fire their asses!!!!!!!!!!!!

WE WILL NOT FORGET!! Next election – let Congress feel the sting of the unemployment lines!!! – How many years have you paid taxes? 30? 40? Your government bails out bankers and Wallstreet execs using your tax dollars – but unemployment is allowed to expire? Congress wasn’t worried about the deficit when that big insurance company and Wall Street execs were giving themselves bonuses with taxpayer money! What happened to “by the people” or “for the people”? Or are the big campaign contributors the only “people” who count to congress? They are playing games and going on vacation AGAIN FOR THE THIRD TIME while you are wondering how to feed your kids? Guess what people- YOU DON”T MASTTER!!! So Make yourself Matter -10% unemployment carries 10% of the vote! Use it!!
Fire them next election or Impeach every Congress member NOW for FAILING to act for the people and covetting their own self interest. Next Election – Lets get people elected who actually represent the People- this current congress represents only special interest groups!

Time to dust off the shotguns boys. And girls.

So nice, they give themselves a raise and they give us the shaft…………….I smell REVOLT and very soon………………only so much one can do to stay afloat……..

People are not getting rich on unemployment. What is going to happen to our struggling economy when an increasing number of people cannot afford to pay thier bills, buy food or the everyday necessities to live? The economy get's worse, more people get laid off, less jobs are out there. It's a downward spiral that will increase exponentially until the depression of the 1930's looks like an economic hiccup. Unfortunately, this country isn't run by the people, or the people that the people elect. It's run by “Big Business”, the same ones that want us to be obedient little sheep, educated enough to do the jobs they want us to do, and buying the things they tell us to buy. All the while we put the majority of the meager wages they allow us to have back into thier pockets. There will be a revolution if things do not change, a revolution that money can't fund and it will be fought by those that have, and those that do not have. And guess what those that have, your the minority.

Don't pass the extension or create a Tier V and the countries deficit will be the last thing you worry about.

I really hope they pass this extension! I am due to run out next week. I have worked and paid taxes for over 30 years. What do they do…they use my tax money to bail out the same idiots that caused this economic collapse in the first place. I have two mortgages and not one of them will modify it, saying that I don't make enough money-dah! I think our whole system needs an overhaul!

I am in agreement with most here on this but I do think that the US government has proven what they will do with gun toting Americans that go against the government. You can shoot your fellow American one at time in the poorest sections of America and not an eyebrow will be raised but shoot at an American agent and you will be burned alive! I know that many regular policemen or policewomen on the job are just doing that…. their job.

On another note, I just got off the phone with an employment rep from Carson City and found at that I was NOT given all of the benefits I qualify for… there was weeks left on my tier 3 and tier 4, 14 weeks and 6 weeks respectively, that I am still eligible to recieve. Many of you may be in the same situation, please check it out! And good luck, in both looking for work and getting benefits! Peace.

I absolutely agree with you, it appears that the powers that be are only concerned with the 'deficit' when it reaches into the upper class and special interests of corporations tax pockets otherwise when it comes to bailing out banks, car manufacturers, that's a quick 'yes' vote and praised by economists.

I am 48 years old and I agree with your comment. In my opinion, it appears that Democrats are as corrupt as Republicans, secondly holding up a vote until the last day before leaving for recess is irresponsible–could you or I leave for vacation and NOT finish job duties required? NO. Third, despite having house majority Democrats are not playing hard ball and Republicans are succeeding in obstructing and defeating necessary legislation, in this case the extension of unemployment benefits. The U.S. is no longer the land of opportunity, it is the land of opportunity for the FEW (higher economic class and those in power). Historically the values that have distinguished the US from the rest of the world are eroding FAST.

Letter to Pelosi, Re no to Tier 5

Pelosi. Have you lost your mind! I was raised to be polite and address people of authority with respect. However I’ll be dammed if you people are deserving of any respect or politeness from any tax paying American. Especially from the long term older unemployed Americans that in two years or less have lost the stability it took their whole lives to acquire. You need to identify the long term unemployed even in states with low unemployment. Are they older people that are not being hired because of their age and now you are leaving them behind? You just celebrated a birthday nationally and you’re no spring chicken. How can OUR government officials call themselves morally responsible people while allowing people (that are unemployed through no fault of their own) with children end up homeless, starving or even worse, I wonder what these politicians children think of them, knowing that their elected parents have the ability to ease some the suffering that unemployed families are experiencing. Also going on break during a crisis shows exactly how little concern you have for your “Fellow Americans”. What a joke!
Failure to regulate the banks, health industry, and corporations let down the people who were fully employed, paying taxes, and raising families and are now paying the price for your negligence. They trusted you to keep something like this from happening. You as well as other government officials failed them.
Financial support for this is very simple stop paying for any costs outside this country. Including wars, loans and any other costs until our own economy is stable. This may sound harsh however I cannot give my neighbor money if my own family has none!
Also remember we can care less which side is to blame. We blame all of you with your childlike games being played with the lives U.S. unemployed citizens.
Every morning thousands of unemployed (especially the older people) wake up and watch the news or Google hoping that today some senator(s) will stand up and create a bill to extend Tier 5. Or that the president will stand up and demand movement on this issue. At this point for some even this is too little too late. Because even then we have to wait for the senate to vote (not to mention the holidays on the senate calendar when they will do absolutely nothing). We expected some resistance but not to the extent of putting your foot down and telling us to kiss your ass for the rest of the year!

If you don't realize it, the real reason these politicians don't want to extend unemployment benefits is so they can keep deceiving the people. Unemployment figures do NOT reflect the real unemployment rate since they are based on the number of people applying for unemployment. Take unemployment away and they can say “Look! Our policies are working! Unemployment is down!”

This systemis beyond fixing. The politicians who feast at the buffet offered by lobbyists and special interest groups will never change the system on their own. It needs to be torn down and rebuilt. If I were a politician, I would be terrified about what will happen to me when the people finally have enough and take action. Take all the people who have already exhausted their benefits and add the thousands each month who will have nothing but the lousy six months most states give, and watch what happens next year.

If you're not paying attention to the buzz, start stockpiling what you can and get ready. Nobody really though it would happen in France or Russia, either.

What is fishy about it all is that I tried to click on a few articles lately that said negative things about law makesrs Etc.! It then directed me to a page that said it was expired. Not hardly they were all posted hours before. I think they deff filter what goes out to media. Well it is going to be very hard for them to filter what happens next. As I am sure people will notice all the empty homes and homless people and kids all over. Cant hide that lol. Or try to hide the fact that people will fight for food and supplies to live on. HELLO this is no joking matter. They just shrug it off and go home, yes home, because they still have one. One they bought with our tax dollars as higher than deserved wages they make to ruin our lives. I agree that we will all get sick of this song and dance and eventually rally together and make life hard on them.

Unfortunately, the republican is feeding a poison pills to the democrat and they are starting to bite on it. This will cause them congressional seats this coming mid term election.

I think they are going to add a Tier 5 and the delay is in the hope that some people will take any shit job just to avoid starving to death.

funny how theses people in house have stable jobs and have no effin clue what it is like to struggle. If they do not add a tier 5 welfare will be complaining they are broke..

pass tier v we need to live,im a single dad iwas doing good rasing my son till this stuff started 07,08 mr president i voted for you and respect you please do the right thing give 99rs some more time thank you.there are not no jobs for the people 45 and over im qualified professional and nothing just bs we have children that are going to suffer and that not right tier 5 or a good paying job sir

I'm 51 you nailed it.I'll never have what I had,I sold my watches. 1200 dollars they cost me I got 45,the cable is off as of today and by the grace of my roomate I use this computer.I can't start again my chest is pounding this is the worst I have ever seen it.Good luck to you I'm probably gonna eat a bullet soon.

What we gotta do is have all the 99er's take a specific day and go into their grocery stores by the loads and everyone fill up their carts and haul ass out of the store! This will get media attention across the nation! Let them crooked sons of bitches politicians try to ignore us then!!!!

Thanks for your information.

ALL INCUMBANTS BEWARE IN NOVEMBER

This is a pretty good article!

I am not one of the unemployed… Congress needs to be held accountable for the their failure to create a jobs bill and a jobs market.

extending Unemployment is not the answer however it what is needed. the Answer is to create jobs, which will take Congress to place hire taxes on any company that out sources jobs over seas, higher taxes on any funds leaving the US and higher tariffs on imports.

Until then we have to pay out unemployment for the failure of our leaders.

Support unemployment here, it is one of Change.org highest all time petitions.

LOVE IT!!! The Nation is at War, spending $600 Billion Dollar in a fiscal year on Iraq/Afghanistan and at other places around world while Unemployment Benefits are running out in the Midst of a Post recession!
Wow, Americans must be truly living the American Dream!!! So Lucky that i live here in Australia :)

We need to vote all these people out of office. They can no longer relate to those out there struggling to survive.

J.N> Morris, Oregon

if unemployment stops the crime rate is gonna go up and thats not good everything is gonna go down hill for those who are struggling out here.

I don’t know. I love Coach Outlet Online Store, I was in Chelsea the happiest man since the arrival of a person who should have never Prada Shoes. I was thinking I would have Coach Outlet be there all my life and a few months later, I buy Coach Purses. So you never know. In Inter I found an incredible family. Players; amazing. President; amazing. Then after two years I felt, even with two more years Coach Purses Outlet, I felt it was over. I need something new for me. So you never know. But when I sign a Coach Factory Outlet, I sign with the intention to respect the contract and be happy for that Prada Sneakers. So if everything goes in the right direction, yes I will stay Coach Outlet Store.
