Tier 5 Unemployment Extension Bill Petition Rises: 99ers Want Unemployment Benefits -- The clamor for the passage of a Tier 5 Unemployment Extension Bill in the Congress continues. The recent HR 4213 Unemployment Extension Bill does not involve unemployment benefits for those 99ers or those that have received 99 weeks of their unemployment benefits. What will happen to these unemployed individuals now?
Without a Tier 5, these unemployed Americans will have to rely on federal TANF or the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families program which offers just over $500 each month. However, before you can avail this benefit, you must first prove that you're capable of paying your rent. Apart from it, the only benefit available to those 99ers are food stamps.

  • everal groups and organizations have set up various petition sites for 99ers. Change.org has this “The 99ers need a Tier 5 added to Unemployment Benefits“; The Petition Site has this “We need a Tier 5 Federal Unemployment Extension“; and Saver 99ers has this “Petittion to Save the 99ers”

  • That means, if an unemployed individual is expecting to get unemployment benefits, then they will be less likely to get motivated to find a job. While some maybe in this kind of attitude, the majority are actually looking for jobs but there are just no work available in the market. In effect, they are continuously losing their homes, their resources, their food, and their dignity.

  • Aside from the usual argument of the Republicans that the costs associated with the passage of a Tier 5 Unemployment Extension Bill will just add to the current huge deficit of the government, it is also being said that it creates a disincentive for a job seeking behavior.

  • unemployment benefits. What will happen to these unemployed individuals now?

  • @lessions4u2learn So, move in together and form a community of self sufficient people! How about starting a petition to get farm land and some non hybrid seeds, and some chickens, This a DEPRESSION and No jobs are coming! Financial times stated, just today, through 2013, th enumbers won't budge! Time to get a different mindset! 26 weeks is more than enough! Was more, again, many refused jobs, now it is to late!!

  • 36 weeks of unemployment is what th estates provided you, that is what YOU paid for out of your check! It is not alife long benefit! The part you paid is good fo r6 months!!

    The FEDS have been supporting you, and so Have I, Game over! To bad you all don't understand with claims like " I paid in to the system" It costs us 319 billion so far, under Obama, CA borrows 40 million aday!! It must stop, Thanks God it is!!

  • Hilary Clinton just authorized sending the Palestinian authority another $150 million totaling $600 million so far over the course of the last decade. How much are they giving to companies like Goldman Sachs? We're spending a trillion dollars per day on our so-called "war on terror."

  • fight4change.us !!!! launches tonite at 12 midnight....

  • If one checks their claim status online and it says initial claim as been processed please file biweekly claim as instructed but then told from a confused person who works at unemployment that they cant get it cus they used up their 99wks when in reality he didnt because he had breaks and didnt use it for 2yrs straight. Again this idiot at unemployment doesnt know what theyre talking about

  • @onawa2000 A friend of mine said he was on unemployment off and on for 2yrs which means he wasnt collecting for 2yrs straight b/c he had breaks in between, when he check his claim status it said your claim has been processed and file your biweekly claim as instructed which hes assuming that he will get a letter soon, yet when he talked to someone at unemployment they told him he cant get it cus he was on for 99wks??? He thinks that this person doesnt know what theyre talking about.
