Will Ca. Pass A 4th Extension Unemployment Benefit Soon?

I just spoke to a person with the California EDD and she said it will start actively from Sunday Nov.8,2009. But the computer system has to be reset and will take at least several weeks. Also, the bill is only extended until the end of Dec. 09. Unless Congress passes it into 2010, we will only get 14 weeks at this point.. So I called the House Ways and Means, and they said, "yes, this is true, unless they pass it to extend into 2010, that will be all we get at this point." So we still need to lean on the Congress to pass the additional 6 weeks that were promised to us. They shouldn't hold our money hostage. We earned it by working and had it taken out of our checks, So we should get all that we worked for all those years.
