\n A boost in unemployment pay is about to run out for people who lost their jobs due to the coronavirus pandemic \u2014 as jobless claims pass 51 million.<\/p>\n

The $600-per-week federal supplement in unemployment insurance is a flashpoint ahead of talks next week on a new coronavirus relief bill.<\/p>\n

Republicans including Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell oppose extending the boost \u2014 though there are hints of a potential compromise.<\/p>\n

The supplement for weekly unemployment was intended to ensure that most people kept the same income if they were temporarily out of work, but it officially runs out at the end of July.<\/p>\n

If it\u2019s taken away, people would only get weekly benefits from state governments, which range from less than $250 a week in Arizona and Louisiana to over $1,200 with dependents in Massachusetts.<\/p>\n

Many people have returned to work as states allow businesses to reopen, but another 1.3 million Americans app<\/a>lied for first-time unemployment benefits last week.<\/p>\n

From the start, Senate Republicans objected to the boost resulting in some jobless people earning more than 100 percent of their prior pay due to varying state rates, saying it created an incentive not to work.<\/p>\n

McConnell (R-Ky.) said this month that extending the boost won\u2019t be in a new bill.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re hearing it all over the country that it\u2019s made it harder actually to get people back to work,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

White House economic adviser Larry Kudlow is pushing for a \u201cback to work\u201d bonus to replace the unemployment bump. But signaling room for compromise, Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin, the top Trump administration negotiator on past packages, said last week a priority was changing the provision to ensure \u201cno more\u201d than 100 percent of pre-pandemic pay was awarded.<\/p>\n

House Democrats passed a unilateral $3 trillion relief bill in May that would include a continued boost in unemployment insurance, along with new rent and mortgage assistance programs. Republicans scoffed at the bill as an unserious wish list.<\/p>\n

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said Thursday that Republicans \u201chave to do unemployment insurance.\u201d She said the Federal Reserve spent trillions to prop up the stock market and that \u201cwe should have trillions of dollars to prop up workers.\u201d<\/p>\n

Republicans \u201care like in a caste system mode,\u201d Pelosi said.<\/p>\n

Republicans are pushing for a bill that includes liability protections for businesses with returning workers and a possible payroll tax cut \u2014 meaning there could be a tradeoff. Prior COVID-19 bills were the result of laborious late-night horse trading.<\/p>\n

Other items possible in the bill include funding for schools to reopen in the fall, and a possible additional round of direct stimulus payments.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
