Larry Kudlow: ‘State Unemployment Benefits Continue’ Following Trump’s EO

‘For an extra $100, we will pay three-quarters and the states will pay 25%’

RUSH EXCERPT:

KUDLOW: “Well, look. Don’t forget, please, the state unemployment benefits continue. There’s no effect on what they do. And you are correct. For an extra $100, we will pay three-quarters and the states will pay 25%. And I think the way this is going to work out, we have additional funds that we will repurpose for this. This is an essential item. We’ve tried to get it through the democratic house for, I don’t know, two or three times. And it’s going to be a form of economic assistance, probably you’ll get $800 total, federal and state. And if we get it going September 1st, which is what the deadline looks like, that’ll probably give the workforce an increase in wages.”
