Sen. Chuck Schumer
Aug. 24, 2020

Sen. Chuck Schumer
Aug. 24, 2020
Tweet - "It's been A MONTH since federal eviction moratorium expired. 30 day notice is required before eviction--so new evictions can begin today Unacceptable For the next 2 hrs, @NLIHC is taking over @SenSchumer to talk about why Senate GOP needs to invest in ensuring people stay housed"
Sen. Chuck Schumer
Aug. 24, 2020

Sen. Chuck Schumer
Aug. 11, 2020
Tweet - "Rather than trying to break the logjam, President Trump issued a bunch of unworkable, weak executive orders. He slashed enhanced unemployment benefits and his executive order on evictions doesn't even guarantee a moratorium on evictions. Republicans must come back to the table."

Rep. Nydia Velázquez
Aug. 10, 2020

Sen. Chuck Schumer
Aug. 10, 2020
Tweet - "Trump's so-called executive order cruelly cuts emergency unemployment benefits. By $800 per month. With more than 30 million Americans collecting unemployment in the midst of a pandemic. House Dems continue to fight #ForThePeople. We. Will. Prevail."

Sen. Chuck Schumer
Aug. 8, 2020
Tweet - "There is only one job opening. For every five Americans currently looking for work. Why don't Republicans believe the $600 emergency unemployment insurance benefit should continue? Outrageous. There are NO jobs to go back to."

Sen. Chuck Schumer
July 27, 2020
Tweet - "If you've lost your job through no fault of your own, Republicans want you to take a 30% pay cut. Can you believe that? If you've lost your job and can't go back to work Republicans now want to take $1,600 out of your pocket every single month."
Sen. Chuck Schumer
July 27, 2020
Tweet - "Protections against evictions expired last week. Enhanced unemployment benefits for over 20 million unemployed Americans will expire this week. We are on the precipice of several dangerous cliffs for one reason only: President Trump and Senate Republicans wasted time."

Sen. Chuck Schumer
July 23, 2020
Tweet - "The Trump White House and Senate Republicans reportedly want to extend enhanced unemployment benefits, but only provide 70% of a worker's former wage. That's right, America. If you've lost your job through no fault of your own, Republicans want you to take a 30% pay cut."

Coronavirus
Sen. Chuck Schumer
July 23, 2020

Sen. Chuck Schumer
July 21, 2020
Tweet - "Enhanced unemployment benefits will expire at the end of the month. But according to reports, the Republican COVID proposal bill will not do nearly enough to aid the 20 to 30 million Americans currently unemployed."
Sen. Chuck Schumer
July 20, 2020

Sen. Chuck Schumer
