Republican elected officials and critics of expanded unemployment have argued that federal unemployment payments, adjusted since the outset of the pandemic, are too high. Below is a summary on state actions to limit supplemental unemployment to date (May 11, 2021). Additional GOP-led states are working towards similar actions and others will likely leave the federal program amid poor recent employment figures and reports of employers facing difficulty finding workers.
