NYS Lags Behind in Payouts to Help Unemployed, Injured Workers

Gregory DeFreitas, professor of economics and director, Center for Study of Labor and Democracy, was interviewed by Newsday for a story on a report from the New York State Comptroller’s Office that shows that the state lags behind others when it comes to cash payouts for several social safety net programs meant to help unemployed or injured workers. Dr. DeFreitas explained that the state’s unemployment benefits system was challenged during the COVID-19 pandemic. The state still owes the federal government $6.2 billion in debt from borrowing funds to pay out a record number of unemployment claims spurred by pandemic job losses, according to the report. “We’re only one of three states in debt like that,” Dr. DeFreitas said. “What that means is we really can’t raise benefits until we repay that $6.2 billion or raise taxes.”

Professor of Constitutional Law James Sample talked to WCBS-TV regarding the matter of President-elect Donald Trump’s hush money case. Manhattan district attorney Alvin Bragg told the court that his office would be open to a four-year freeze on Trump’s sentencing while maintaining that it would continue to back the jury’s guilty verdict in the case. “If Judge [Juan] Merchan delays sentencing until after Mr. Trump’s term of office, that would be prudent and sensible under the indisputably extraordinary circumstances. But a delay in sentencing is not, nor should it be perceived to be, a prelude to a dismissal,” Professor Sample said.
