But someone on here is stating that the 99 weeks is still the limit, how can that be?
Because he IS the kwisatz haderach.................
Donny Shaw of OpenCongress explained Obama’s agreement succinctly this morning: “The filing deadline for federal unemployment insurance that provides benefits for people who run out of their 26 weeks of state-provided benefits without finding a job would be extended until January 2012. Essentially, this will make it possible for people who became unemployed in the past 99 weeks and still haven’t found a job to collect benefits for the same length of time as people who lost their job more than 99 weeks ago. This would not add additional weeks of benefits — 99 weeks would still be the maximum amount of time that anybody could receive benefits.”
