One bill, expected to go to the House floor for consideration this week, calls for an additional 13 weeks of benefits to be added to what is typically a 26-week cap on federal payments. In addition, it calls for 13 weeks on top of that for workers in states with very high unemployment rates.

39 weeks is more than half a year. That’s absurd. The idea is to sustain you so that you can get a job. It’s not to create more welfare, but here we go again.
