With the help of pro-bono lawyers, multiple Marylanders who are still waiting to receive pandemic unemployment assistance are now suing Governor Larry Hogan in an effort to halt the repeal of pandemic era federal unemployment assistance.
The Governor has promised to end the $300 COVID-19 federal unemployment benefits on July 3 amid complaints from business owners that they can’t find workers to fill positions. Doing so would also end the federal unemployment assistance about two months before the federal government had planned for funds to run out.
The class-action lawsuit, which also names Department of Labor Secretary Tiffany Robinson, was spearheaded by the Unemployed Workers Union (UWU) with goal of obtaining an injunction on the July 3rd deadline to end the $300 assistance. They’re also calling for immediate adjudication of all unemployment claims currently held-up in the system. UWU estimates there are over 30,000 people still waiting for benefits for various reasons.
The lawsuit names six plaintiffs who have faced complications filing for Maryland employment benefits. The attorneys behind the lawsuit say it will help everyone still waiting for assistance.

What is under discussion here is NOT unemployment benefits. It is COVID RELIEF. People in Washington took taxpayer funds and gave it to the States to distribute it to those that COVID caused economic hardship for. For a Governor to come along and decide NOT to give it to the people Congress said it was for and spend it on something else is nothing short of stealing. Hogan is a thief for not returning the money to Congress (our tax $$).
STEALING the people’s Money is EXACTLY what they are doing , to keep it for themselves !!!! FACT
Paying the poor people for Two more months is Not hurting businesses !!!! Congress Approved it so YOU can go
complain to them if you don’t like it !!!!
These are Not the good jobs that pay enough to live on that are complaining !!! Good Jobs are FILLED !!!!!
