  1. This mess that Indiana finds itself in begs the question: did Attorney General Todd Rokita counsel the governor that ending the federal unemployment benefits to Hoosiers posed no prospective legal considerations? We know Rokita prides himself in his position as the state’s chief legal advisor, and in his legal acumen. Exactly what has his role been in this fiasco, and what advice has he given?

    1. It’s not a fiasco. The state should keep fighting. These extra payments until September are absurd.

    1. If “*EVERY*” employer is looking for workers, then how is it high school & college students (who AREN’T receiving these payments) aren’t snatching up the jobs?

    2. 100% agree w/ you Lance.
      @Phillip – because they’re exactly that… STUDENTS. They can work the rest of their lives when they’re done being a STUDENT. Continuing to pay folks to stay at home is ABSURD.

    1. So a guy like me who worked thru the entire pandemic breaking my back building the new IU dorms should get short end of the stick?? I was laid off directly as a result of gas prices increasing and building materials raising in price. Forcing people into taking jobs that they don’t want is slavery. America is supposed to be free country. FREEDOM IS CHOICE

    2. 100% absurd considering the amount of BUSINESSES LOOKING for people. If you don’t like your job, find another one. Stop sitting around and complaining about government benefits.

    3. Nobody if forcing anybody to take a job they don’t want, Kevin. If you don’t like the type of job you are offered, stay home and starve. Just don’t expect unborn future taxpayers to feel sorry for you and send you money to stay at home while you look for that special job that suits your delicate sensitivities.

  2. Help wanted signs all over the state. What person who can use rational judgment believes that the additional $300 is necessary? Apparently several judges.

  3. Shop enough judges and you will always find some bleeding heart with no common sense.
    As prices continue to climb along with shortages, maybe these people will wake up to the fact that we need to stop paying citizens to sit at home while we allow cheap labor to stream across the border. Follow the money. Big business needs cheap labor and democrats need new voters.

    1. Bernie – Inform yourself before commenting. There’s no “judge shopping’ involved. Cale Bradford is the Chief Judge of the Indiana Court of Appeals. The rest of your comments are just as ill-informed and don’t merit a response.

  4. If you think unemployment is stopping everyone from taking your job offer, you might be a bad boss. Over 20 millions Americans have quit their jobs voluntarily this year – they’re not taking unemployment, they’re leaving your awful company for one that PAYS THEM.
