Senate Defeats Bills to Extend Unemployment Benefits

We feel like there’s no much more to even say. Sure, we could go into statistics like the cost of $6.4 billion to the government for the extension of three months.
Or we could point out a statistic of 2.3 million children last year living in our country with at least one parent who was looking for a new job for at least six months, per the Urban Institute and published by The Wall Street Journal.
