Testa/Simonsen/McClellan Propose Face-to-Face Solution to State Government Delays May 10, 2021, 3:55 pm | in Testa/Simonsen/McClellan Propose Face-to-Face Solution to State Government Delays Amid growing public frustration with ongoing unemployment delays, Senator Michael Testa, Assemblymen Erik Simonsen and Antwan McClellan have introduced legislation to help residents get the benefits they have earned. The bill sponsored by the Legislative District 1 lawmakers would require state employees to work in person if their job requires face-to-face interaction with the public. “We continue to hear from constituents who have been waiting month after month to get their unemployment payments. Inexcusable delays are taking a toll on families, and in many cases, the problems could be worked out with a face-to-face discussion with a Department of Labor specialist,” said Testa (R-1).
