COVID-19 relief bill expected to boost unemployment benefits for thousands of Arizonans

We’ve said it before. Arizona has the second lowest unemployment pay out in the country. So any increase on top of that will have a significant impact for the tens of thousands of family collecting but they’ll have to wait at least an extra week now before seeing the extra funds.
