Erin Perrine: We Don’t Want to Disincentivize People Getting Back to Work with High Unemployment Payments

‘We want to make sure people are getting back to work when they can’

EXCERPT:

PERRINE: "Ultimately we want to make sure that people who lost a job thorough no fault of their own are able to pay their rent, that they can get groceries for their family. That's the ultimate goal here. We want people also to be able to get back to work. And we certainly don’t want to disincentivize that with high unemployment payments. So we want to make sure people are getting back to work when they can."
