resident Donald Trump’s current proposal for additional unemployment benefits of $300 a week just doesn’t go far enough, California Gov. Gavin Newsom said during a Wednesday press conference.
But he said he won’t “look a gift horse in the mouth” now that Trump has said states do not have to come up with another $100 a week on their own. The Democratic governor said he’s working on how California can process the $300 in the president’s proposal “as quickly and efficiently as possible.”
The $600 in weekly additional federal unemployment benefits expired at the end of July, and Congress and the White House have been deadlocked in negotiations to extend some or all of that amount.

Yeah, but they have that high speed rail project, that ought to close the gap...
Last I remember max unemployment in CA was 425 a week (of course this was long ago, but we can safely assume it hasn’t gone down)
425 a week plus 300 is 725/wk. 52 weeks is 37,700/yr. This, using the lowest of all numbers involved....... at 2088 hrs in a work year, they are getting just north of 18/hr for NOT WORKING.
This champion of open borders and illegal aliens in California is costing California $30 BILLION PER YEAR....YES BILLION with a “B”.
And this typical radical Marxist governor has the guts to complain about the amount of money the federal government GIVES TO THE STATE. Typical Democrat PIG.
They’re still building the Crazy Train boondoggle and all
“Ich bin ein Berliner!”
...mit Zuckerguss!
(with icing!)
That’s why the+ in the figure 50+
He and cuomo are billions in debt
Texas and fla report 0 deficit.
These people cannot run a city nor any entity. They cannot tell anyone how to spend money it is unacceptable.
If Gavin is really concerned he can certainly augment the amount from the California treasury, and if money is tight, then drop some of the cash being spent on the illegal alien foreign invaders to make up the difference.
sorry but its not a 1000.00 a week
the max is 450 and you have to have earned over $16,000 in a quarter to get the max..
The State max may be $450, but the feds have been adding another $600 for a total of $1050 a week.
nice try is $450.. not even close.
nice try again but you collect for 26 weeks.
you collect for 26 weeks only..
yes i know, i missed out the extra 600 by a week, was RIF on july 17.. sucks to be me, but then i am 65 so ss and medicare for me
Ouch.
Thanks Friend yep... it is, but i get the UI, rif payments for 3 months, and SS when they process my application. so life will be not to bad.
Amen and let’s repeat your message!

“If it had been $1000 a week he’d have said, “It’s not enough!”
He better push hard. At the rate he is losing control of the state for these antics, he’ll be unemployed after the next election. And for him, just for his haircuts, it ain’t enough.

He’ll be re-elected in a landslide, no matter what................
Newsom might need some of that $$$$$ himself-—to bring his property taxes up to date. He is chronically delinquent. He just paid a PENALTY of over $2700 on one tax bill....he owns multiple California properties.

I owned property in California for over 40 years.
I WAS NEVER LATE with my property taxes.
Neither he nor cuomo could run a one family home. Not on common terms. News on can stop with the demands
