Action Required to Save Unemployme​nt Benefits

    Right off the bat, let's get something done: Sign The Petition to reauthorize the full federal unemployment insurance program through 2012 before it expires Dec. 31. Unless Congress acts to renew federal unemployment insurance, nearly 2 million hardworking Americans will be cut off in the month of January alone, and more than 6 million will lose these benefits during 2012. The AFL-CIO is delivering the petition to Congress this afternoon, so please sign now!
