Washington, DC—(ENEWSPF)—March 6, 2014. Congressman Dan Kildee (MI-05) and Congresswoman Tammy Duckworth (IL-08) today led the House Democratic Caucus in writing a letter to Speaker of the House John Boehner (OH-08) urging for an up-or-down vote to extend unemployment insurance. Their letter comes after a new report by the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities found that 200,000 Veterans are among the now over two million people who have lost their UI benefits since they expired at the end of last year.
