Sen. Olympia Snowe (R-Maine) today is pushing for the Senate to pass a separate provision authorizing the extension of federal unemployment insurance benefits:
“„The hundreds of thousands of unemployed Americans who are losing jobless benefits every week deserve our immediate attention, so I am writing today to urge you to bring a free-standing extension of unemployment insurance benefits to the Senate floor for a vote early next week. As of today, more than 1.2 million people out of work for longer than six months are ineligible for the next tier of extended benefits, which were originally provided by the economic stimulus bill to fight the recession.
