Is he wanting to fund the 600 federal portion or just the state 247?

So force business to shut down or run half capacity, then tax them 30% to pay for all the unemployment the Govt caused with the above policy?

We went to war with Great Britain for shite less egregious than this

Just continue to mock the "Republicans" who put him there ... twice.

Because that's about all we can do.

At our current trajectory, we will have to borrow from the federal government as early as September to replenish the fund to continue paying state unemployment benefits to Louisiana workers. #lagov #lalege



Here's a bright fricking idea, open up the entire economy you shite bag.

Even if its just grandstanding for federal money, its horrible that he has the stones to send something like this and then threaten all of us working people with this bulletin. How about you do something for us people still busting arse? I've been working at heavily reduced pay since March and still paying full fricking income tax on it with no benefit from anybody and this dude wants to tax my business more?

End the benefits



You are correct, every fast food and grocery store I pass has a now hiring sign. It may not be the top paying job in the world but it's a job and a starting point for someone. Those that really work these jobs are the ones benefiting from this stay at home pay.

Businesses are looking for employees everywhere. Can’t hire anyone because they make more on unemployment (know it’s ending now). No need to tax them, just send them people willing to work and do a good job!!!!

He's wanting Congress to replenish our unemployment trust fund or forgive federal loans Louisiana will have to take out for the trust fund.

Where is that extra 30% payroll tax going to come from? Seems like we have a huge unemployment issue right now with no end in sight.

Seriously? This is your response? Record unemployment, let's raise the PAYROLL TAX on current employers to solve the issue. This is economics 201, it isn't that hard.

Good Gosh, he may be short some brain cells.

Why doesn’t he pass the hat to his GumboPac buddies? Surely they could get by with fewer TV commercials and billboards. They managed to raise millions of dollars to buy him re-election.

JBE = What happens when REPUBLICANS are STUPID enough to vote for a DEMOCRAT.

You people will hopefully learn one day.

This is one of the dumbest proposals I have ever heard of.
