From the article:
“EDD, which is upgrading its 30-year-old unemployment insurance processing system, said early last week that about 50,000 Californians had claims delayed after the department converted several years of old data into a new processing system over the Labor Day weekend. The problem quickly grew wider, however. By Friday, EDD said about 185,000 of the state’s nearly 800,000 people receiving benefits had been affected, with about 80,000 backlogged claims yet to be cleared.”
800,000 x say $1,000/ month = $800,000,000/month
I doubt they are collecting that amount from employers each month.
