    This bill has alot of downsides. I am hoping for an unemployment extension but this bill will reduce the amount of unemployment to be received in many states which is usually already half of your normal earnings. For example if you normally earn 10/hr and 400 a week, you prob receive around 200 a week in benefits now..if you qualify under tier one..your benefit amount will be reduced to equal 100 a week..
