Legislative Leaders Back Cutting Unemployment Benefit Weeks

Legislative Leaders Back Cutting Unemployment Benefit Weeks Bill would boost Tennessee’s weekly payout, but limit the number of weeks unemployed workers could receive it to as few as 12 Tweet Share Leaders in the Tennessee General Assembly are backing a proposal to reduce the number of weeks residents can draw unemployment benefits while boosting the weekly payout by $25 or $50. According to Republican lawmakers, the goal of the move is to push people back to work amid ongoing recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, which left hundreds of thousands of Tennesseans without jobs. As written, the legislation would not go into effect until December 2023, in part because state officials have told legislative sponsors that it will take that long to acquire and put into place new software systems required for the change.
