I cant throw a rock in any direction without hitting someone who filed unemployment in GA as far back as March who's yet to received a dime...and last week Kemp kills the $300 additional stimulus?
GA DOL is on Covid vaca, ppl are hurting and GA DOL is closed.!! No phone.
@ajc
@VP but now we need reacurring stimulus checks for the low income worker in the states that are going to cut off extra $ 300.00 ui ex. Ga. gov Kemp what if we cut off his pay which comes from us tax payers and tell him now go get ur low income job and support ur family. 👍
@mdnij34 If you lived in a state with Governors like DeSantis (FL), Kemp(GA) and McMasters(SC) you would be pissed to. None of them gives a shit about the citizens. They are stopping the $300 federal unemployment. If so the state shouldn’t be able to keep the money.
This new cruelty by Kemp is a mean, cheap trick that punishes Georgia families rather than serves them as the pandemic continues. $300/wk is a lifeline for many. GA can't solve labor shortages w/gimmicks. Try Medicaid expansion, livable wages & child care. https://t.co/HUQenDmmeJ
REV. WARNOCK: YOU & SEN. OSSOFF MUST FIND A WAY TO TAKE THIS UNEMPLOYMENT MONEY OUT OF THE HANDS OF THESE HATEFULL GOP POLITICIANS, LIKE GOVERNOR KEMP. THESE MILLIONAIRES HAVE NO IDEA WHAT'S IT LIKE TO WORK FOR SLAVE LABOR, YOU NEED TO SET UP A FEDERAL OFFICE TO DISBURSE $300.

@dug_eyed@BrianKempGA Cut off any assistance, especially those not from Georgia budget???? Making it harder for me and my black family to vote at every interval. Block anything unless "the job creators " is guaranteed to benefit more than the average worker.
@Brian Kemp. The business man's man.
@BrianKempGA Idiot Kemp, GA is one of the lowest states in the US on Covid vaccinations about 39%. Unemployment benefits cutoff by Kemp lots of suffering in poor areas.
Gov. Kemp and Labor Commissioner Mark Butler are forcing us back to underpaid and unsafe jobs by taking away unemployment benefits.
Join us this Thursday at 11 AM as workers across the state join to demand what's ours, and fight for what we deserve!

@amyklobuchar I work the elections in GA and this past election was the best we have had so far. Kemp created problems to benefit himself abusing his position as Secretary of State. We are also very concerned about how Republicans gave themselves the power to remove board of electors.
Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms retweeted a question for Georgia Governor Brian Kemp. Beginning Saturday, Gov. Kemp will end the extra $300/weekly federal unemployment benefits. The PUA program for self-employed and gig workers will also be cut.
Ending employment benefits for millions of workers in GA is fowl AF the Brian Kemp is nothing than a modern day slave runner the wages of some of these jobs ain’t enough to live off RAISE THE MINIMUM WAGE that’s your answer to labor shortage stupid!
An overnight protest still going over unemployment benefits ending this week in GA. People have been camped at the GDOL Headquarters since 10am yesterday. They told me they’re not leaving until there’s some sort of resolution for Georgia workers. @wsbtv
@GeorgiaDOL Kemp and Butler they're coming for yall for being heartless. I don't believe in coincidences. They headed straight to your homes since yall wanted to cut benefits and stop processing claims. 🙃🙃
