Unemployment Benefits Extended

Thousands of jobless Nevadans will still be getting unemployment benefits this summer. Governor Jim Gibbons has signed an agreement with the federal Department of Labor, allowing a 13-week extension of unemployment checks. The state Employment Security Division will soon notify about 50-thousand Nevadans they may be eligible for the extended benefits, which can be as high as 360-dollars a week. Claims can be made for the additional benefits as early as this Sunday. For more information on the program, call the Employment Security Division at 486-0350, or log onto nvdetr.org
