TRENTON – Legislation sponsored by Senator Shirley K. Turner (D-Mercer) that would refine unemployment benefit instructions has cleared the full Senate.
“Filing an unemployment claim should not be a harrowing experience that discourages people from making claims,” said Senator Turner. “Individuals who have lost their jobs need these benefits to support themselves and their families. Making the filing process easier is one small way to better assist those who have been unfortunate enough to lose their job.”
