They need to go ahead and pass it!!! So many people are of work, and with few or no jobs' unemployment is their only income at this time. Already too much suffering, people have and are losing their homes, not adults are going hungry, but young innocent children through no fault are also suffering due to their parent inability to provide the basic necessities, food, and shelter. I would to offer a suggestion to all those who have opposed/held up the extension for unemployment, "Why don't try walking in all of us who are currently unemployed." Just maybe you will obtain a sense of what it feels like when your benefits have ran out,and family and friends have grown tired of lending, because they have their own families to support, most important they are unsure as to whether or not them themselves are unsure if they wake up tomorrow whether or not they will have a job. I hope that those who are holding up the extension will never have too find out what it like to heard their children crying because they are hungry and the frige, and covers are born dry.
