Wow- the state sounds like it may be facing ever worsening situations when we need to borrow from the feds for jobless dollars

State secures federal loan to pay jobless benefits

With Rhode Island's unemployment insurance trust fund on track to run dry by the end of next week, the state yesterday was granted a $75-million credit line from the federal government to keep benefits flowing to the approximately 34,400 now receiving them, along with anyone else who becomes jobless in the coming months.

A normal process to help, but again you need to speak out to the officials...letters do make a difference

What a joke as they play with the windfalls and do not solve the problems..

Did you see Carcieri is back with the cigarette tax but not the minimum price and using stimulus to paste together a bandaid solution?
