Beginning today, more than 200,000 unemployed workers won’t receive their unemployment insurance benefits because Congress failed to agree on extending the emergency unemployment insurance measure. Also affected are COBRA health insurance subsidies for the unemployed. The bill was held up a single lawmaker, Republican Senator Tom Coburn of Oklahoma. The Hill newspaper reports those who will miss unemployment checks may see them in the future. That’s because Senate Democrats want to pass an extension of the program that can be applied retroactively once Congress is back in session next week.
