DeSantis Tells Unemployed Collecting Gov Benefits To Look For A Job

On Wednesday, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis told unemployed Floridians that May will be the last month they can collect unemployment benefits without proving they are looking for a job. “Governor Ron DeSantis lifted the requirement that people receiving benefits look for work early in the pandemic when unemployment was rising and few were hiring,” CBS Miami reported. “But DeSantis has lifted restrictions on businesses, and the unemployment rate is below the national average.” “Normally when you’re getting unemployment, the whole idea is that it’s temporary, and you need to be looking for work to be able to get off unemployment,”
