NEW YORK, March 25 -- The National Employment Law Project issued the following statement by Executive Director Rebecca Dixon:
"NELP strongly supports this critically important legislation, which proposes a comprehensive approach to strengthening unemployment insurance programs around the country. No temporary fix can make unemployment insurance, which has been decimated by countless draconian cuts over the last decade, suddenly be able to handle the current crisis equitably.
