OpenCongress Unemployment Benefits 2009 House Scorecard

This scorecard lists the U.S. House votes in 2010 to extend unemployment benefits. It was created by the staff at OpenCongress but should not be construed as an endorsement of a vote or a position of the organization. Many oppose extending unemployment benefits due to costs or budgetary impacts specific to a particular bill. Many have endorsed extending unemployment benefits through 2009 and 2010 as a response to the recession. We created this scorecard merely as a way of organizing the votes over 2009 and 2010 to extend unemployment benefits due to public interest in the topic.
