Rep. Vern Buchanan on Twitter: "Earlier this month I urged the governor to make unemployment benefits retroactive for people who lost their job due to coronavirus. Glad to see he has done so. Anyone who lost their job since March 9 will now get retroactive payments."

  Can they get into the unemployment system yet to file an application? He could make benefits retroactive to last year, but if the system is broken no one gets anything. Fix it!

  People cant get unemployment because the system has crashed constantly. It is down again for 3 days with no access, people haven't been paid in over 6 weeks. They estimate that it could be months before people get paid!

  Earlier this month, I sent you a personal email regarding challenges within the unemployment system. You’ve yet to respond! Universities are closed. Students depending on their jobs to offset burgeoning costs are greatly impacted, and could use help! What are you doing to help?

  Unemployment benefits should be simplistic—impacted by COVID-19, = instant payment! As insinuated by @SenatorRickScott—no one is waiting on free checks, or willing to remain in an unemployed status. It is absolute time to start having an impact or allow someone else to lead!
