N.J., Pa. act to cope with insolvency in unemployment funds

June 13, 2011

This story by Jane M. Von Bergen from Phily.com features comments from Sharon Dietrich of Community Legal Services on the negative impact on low-income workers of a proposed system overhaul being currently negotiated by Pennsylvania legislators that would cut unemployment spending $140 million a year by curtailing eligibility, reducing the number of weeks of benefits, and making people use work severances before they can collect benefits.
