Pandemic-related unemployment benefits are set to expire this Labor Day weekend for millions of people across the U.S., even as many states endure their worst outbreaks of the pandemic. About 3.3 million people who’ve exhausted state unemployment assistance will lose their pandemic emergency benefits. Also expiring is a program that provides aid to about 4.2 million jobless “gig economy” and self-employed workers. Nearly 3 million unemployed people will lose an extra $300 weekly benefit. The cutoff comes after the Biden administration repeatedly declined to ask the Democratic-controlled Congress to extend unemployment benefits.
