Amid a record number of job openings, thousands of Americans in Republican-led states are suing their governors for opting out of enhanced federal unemployment benefits.
On top of their states’ unemployment insurance programs, Congress will continue to pay unemployed Americans $300 in weekly aid through September 6. Citing the fact that businessowners in their states have been unable to fill a record number of open positions, two dozen Republican governors have opted out of the enhanced benefits to encourage their citizens to return to work.
