Lee's office: meeting on HR 589 99er unemployment extension still on


Congresswoman Barbara Lee is still "optimistic" about rescheduling
the cancelled meeting with House Speaker John Boehner and Majority
Leader Eric Cantor to discuss H.R. 589, the Emergency Unemployment Compensation Act of 2011, Lee's Communications Director told Examiner.com today.

The meeting, which had been set for yesterday, was cancelled due to
negotiations over the budget and the looming government shutdown. The
shutdown is set to take place at midnight tonight.

Thank you Sunrise for the good news. We sure need it now! I sure hope it is scheduled soon.

Ha ahahaha...
This is rich. We have been waiting over a yr now and
it was canceled yesterday.
Now we wait another month for talks, then 2 more months for a hopeful
conclusion.
I'm with unemployed 1208 on this one now, this will not pass.
I've been hopeful for a yr without this, looking for work.
only to have to hope to take a 7 or 8 dollar an hour job.
And the benefits are only lasting 2 1/2 months.

Is it really that damn difficult to say yes to 2 1/2 months.
really?!

What the hell do they mean a government shut down.
That don't make any go$&amn sense.
So what does that mean, the laws are shutdown too.

The GOP House Committee members had no problem sending Ryan's "Path to Ruin" through the Committee before the ink was even dry. Meanwhile, they still don't have any time to even discuss exhaustees.

Know your enemy.

Ut is a never ending story with them!

Lets hope the meeting is soon!

They are all probably worn out playing their " BS budget negotiation game". They are hailing this agreement as "historic". UNBELIEVABLE ! Pretty obvious they are all in the same bed together. What's that ?... Oh. it's about time for another BREAK AGAIN ! SORRY AS* BUNCH .
