House Committee on Ways and Means Chairman Calls for EUC Program to end in December
House Committee on Ways and Means Chairman Rep. Dave Camp (R-MI) issued a press release on Wednesday, October 30th, urging Congress to allow the Emergency Unemployment Compensation (EUC) program to expire when current funding for the program expires at the end of December. In the statement Rep. Camp said: “The current EUC program already has served up about 10 times as many weeks of Federal extended benefits as the most recent program that operated in the wake of the 2001 recession and terror attacks and nearly six times as many weeks as the program that ran from 1991 through 1994.”
