This will be on top of the continuing $345 weekly benefit from the Pandemic Unemployment Assistance (PUA) program that Congress created in the CARES Act. The CARES Act provided a $600 per week supplement, but that program expired at the end of July. The House-passed HEROES Act would extend the additional $600 per week supplement, but Senate Republicans are refusing to negotiate and have instead proposed measures to cut any additional unemployment assistance in half to $300. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
