How is Your State Helping the Unemployed

Massachusetts

Massachusetts is also one of the states that will get a temporary boost of $300 a week “in the coming weeks,” according to the Baker administration. Governor Charlie Baker stated that even if he doesn’t see eye to eye on Trump’s approach, he couldn’t say no to a program that will help Massachusetts’ unemployed residents.

“But if this program is there and it turns out to be the only thing that’s there, I don’t think Massachusetts should pass on that,” he said.
