Oklahoma Rejects Millions Of Dollars Intended To Help Unemployed
Oklahoma Rejects Millions Of Dollars Intended To Help Unemployed
But since the recession began, 30,000 Oklahomans have completely
exhausted their state and federal unemployment benefits. That's like
the entire city of Bartlesville being unemployed with no more options
for government aid.
So why then is the state rejecting an estimated $100 million federal dollars that could be helping our unemployed right now?
When the federal government offered up more money
to help states with the overwhelming demands of unemployment benefits,
Oklahoma was one of nine states to say no thanks.
Other states have changed their laws so they could accept this extra
funding, but so far no state legislators have shown an interest
changing Oklahoma's.

Obviously some people are quite comfortable and don't give a S**! about their constituents. The people of Oklahoma need to do some housekeeping come next election.
