@mlvanvoorhis Well alright that’s not giant red flag...so how does one become Sacramento’s cultural and creative economy manager?? it’s obvious you don’t have to have any prior knowledge of the city’s biggest and maybe most controversial art projects from the last decade

[Raoul Duke @RaoulDuke916]

@mlvanvoorhis That’s one way to introduce yourself as the new cultural and creative economy manager to the city, we’ve all had rough 1st days. Let me guess your a huge fan of Koon’s piglet sculpture that currently mars the entrance to the G1C

@CA_EDD @JulieSuCA are you saying those of us with exhausted claims can apply now!!!!!!!, or you just posting this to give us hope only to have no actual answers on when or how #BeBetter #COVIDー19

[Raoul Duke @RaoulDuke916]

@moslifeoflove @lozanoas30 @CA_EDD Your claim is still pending so no money, you best bet is to call continuously starting at 8am and hope to reach a person and try to resolve your issue that way, good thing is all awards are back dated so as long as everything is good you’ll get your money, eventually....

[Raoul Duke @RaoulDuke916]

@moslifeoflove @lozanoas30 @CA_EDD You only receive the additional $600 weekly if you qualify for at least $1 of regular UI benefits each time you certify if you don’t qualify for regular UI benefits no extra $600 weekly

[Raoul Duke @RaoulDuke916]

@too_cute76 Thank you, I saw this earlier as well it’s just more wait and see no answers no when

[Raoul Duke @RaoulDuke916]

Also @JulieSuCA love how you changed the language on the PUA information page regarding exhausted claims after the 28th and the failure to address these issues, dishonest deceptive disrespectful. Be better, try being forthcoming for once @CA_EDD @GavinNewsom #covid19 #UI

[Raoul Duke @RaoulDuke916]

Hey @JulieSuCA you said you hear us, but when will we HEAR from you. How hard is it to communicate daily on the status of those with open but exhausted claims. It’s impossible to over communicate during a time like this. #bebetter @CA_EDD @GavinNewsom

[Raoul Duke @RaoulDuke916]

@JulieSuCA how’s communication on your TOP PRIORITY(your words) of resolving issues with exhausted claims coming along...I was laid off last year, back to work and now unemployed AGAIN, no relief, no communication for 6wks now, unacceptable #covid19 #caedd @CA_EDD @GavinNewsom

[Raoul Duke @RaoulDuke916]

@GavinNewsom @JulieSuCA @CA_EDD the lack of communication regarding exhausted claims is appalling, you knew we’d left in cold today long before 5:30am this morning and you said nothing till 3:30pm on Twitter #cowards be better

[Raoul Duke @RaoulDuke916]

@DontGiveup20201 @tinabarajas12 @JulieSuCA @CALWDA @CA_EDD State issued regular UI, technically we’d be part of a federal extension and possibly not eligible for the additional $600 as they’re both federally funded programs.

[Raoul Duke @RaoulDuke916]

@CA_EDD those of us with exhausted but still active claims, what are we supposed to do....there’s little to no information on how to file for PUA assistance, we can’t file a new claim so would you mind making this a little less annoying, please and thank you

[Raoul Duke @RaoulDuke916]

@CA_EDD We’ve been out of work since March 15th did you not think we’d be waiting at 5:30am this morning to see if we’d get help, get your sh*t together already... as of now still no PUA application portal

[Raoul Duke @RaoulDuke916]

@CA_EDD When you say 5:30am what time do you really mean??? cause it’s now 5:47 and ain’t a damn thing changed

[Raoul Duke @RaoulDuke916]

@thethreeofus20 I sent my email Tuesday morning around 11 got a call back today around 10 this morning, that lady who helped me knew wtf she was doing dnd how to get it done

[Raoul Duke @RaoulDuke916]

@oneandonly1986 @RichardSureman @CA_EDD Definitely not a scam got a call this morning around 10:30 totally legitimate the lady that helped me was a fu*king gem!!! Thank you
