I am very disappointed that there is no mention of seniors receiving a tax rebate. We have paid our fair share of taxes over our life time and should be included.
Respectfully,

Moderated Comment
I am writing regarding the bill on unemployment extension. I have been unemployed since July, after working over 30 years. I have sent over 100 resumes and nothing. I am currently 50 years old and have a tendency to see this as a problem. My unemployment ran out two weeks ago, and need your help in passing this bill to extend benefits. PLEASE. I am doing everything I can to earn money but to no avail.
PS do you have any work avail at your office.
In regards to Lyle's comment, I'm fairly certain that the senate version of the Stimulus plan did include rebates to seniors whose primary income comes from Social Security. It was the house bill that did not.
PLEASE HELP. We need an extension of unemplyment benefits.
I am a single 56 yr old laid off last August. Have worked since I was 15. Have applied for nearly 100 jobs for which I was qualified or over-qualified. Have had two interviews. Unemployment runs out this week. I don't want to lose my house and shouldn't have to spend all of the retirement funds I have saved just to keep it. I have done everything responsibly and feel like the government is only helping those who haven't been responsible
I have been out of work since November 2007. My unemployment benefits have run out. My money has run out. I unable to obtain employment and need more time to continue my search for employment. I am at risk of losing my car. Gas prices continue to rise daily. I am highly skilled in my field. My State Rhode Island is one of the hardest hit with unemployment. I am 53 old and have worked hard all my life. I've paid taxes all my life, and this is how my country is treating me. Unbelievable. The Senate, House and President continue to play games as peoples life's are put in jeopardy. Totally disgusting. So all the extra time that I am not spending on looking for employment, I will dedicate to making sure any politician that votes nay on not extending unemployment insurance will be out of a job their next term by informing the public of their decision in every forum available. I will encourage others to do so as well. It is time in this country for the people to take control of their government again and take it out of the hands of the uninformed, out of touch, uncompassionate, ignorant, greedy, self absorbed fools that are the true terrorists ruining this country. Pass a fxxkxxg bill extending unemployment benefits or you will be out of a fxxkxxg job!!!!!!!!! Try to remember you work for all the PEOPLE of this country! And all those PEOPLE will remember how you vote on this issue.
