>>Pennsylvania’s L&I Launches Unemployment Program For Those Who Exhausted Benefits

(Harrisburg, PA) -- Pennsylvania’s Department of Labor and Industry Secretary says they are launching Pennsylvania’s Pandemic Emergency Unemployment Compensation Program to allow 13 additional weeks of benefits to anyone who exhausts their regular unemployment. PEUC is funded by the CARES Act and will also be used for those who currently aren’t eligible for state or federal unemployment benefits. Anyone collecting any type of unemployment compensation will also receive an extra $600 per week from the Federal Unemployment Compensation Program. Since mid-March, there have been over 15.7 million unemployment payments made to Pennsylvanians, totaling seven-point-nine billion dollars.
