According to the U.S. Census Bureau, Population Division, the total population for New Jersey is 8,707,739. Based on the data from the Department of Labor, BLS, the total percentage of unemployment in this state is 9.8%. These equals a total of 853,358 who are jobless in the State of New Jersey.
The Senators for the State of New Jersey are Robert Menendez and Frank Lautenberg. The contact information for these United States Senators is located here: http://www.senate.gov/general/contact_information/senators_cfm.cfm?State=NJ
As reported earlier by US Unemployed Blogsite, Robert Menendez was the only Senator on the Senate Finance Committee who challenged Doug Holmes' assertion that continuing to provide unemployment insurance to jobless is less incentive for work. Senator Menendez clarified for the record that there are simply not enough jobs for the unemployed in the country. He cited that there is only one job for every five applicants. The link to this Senate Finance Committee Hearing which took place on April 14, 2010, is located here.

New Jersey Unemployment Rate 9.8% - 853,358 Jobless In New Jersey Are Depending On Tier 5 Unemployment Extension
Monday, May 17, 2010
Nevada Unemployment Rate 13.7% - 372,675 Nevadans Are Depending On Tier 5 Unemployment Insurance
According to the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, Nevada has a 13.4% (recently 13.7 but not much of a difference) unemployment rate. Las Vegas has a 14.1% unemployment rate. In areas such as North Las Vegas the unemployment rate is a staggering 15.4%. Each and every major city in the State of Nevada has double digit unemployment. As many know, the tourism industry dominates the state's economy. Because of the nature of the tourism industry, Nevada may be one of the last states to recover from the nation's unemployment crisis.
According to the United States Census Bureau with the assistance of Google Data, the total population of Nevada is 2,643,085. This equates to 372,675 jobless Nevadans. The numbers are high but not measured in millions as is the case in many other states.
Perhaps I should rethink my previous opinion that most members of Congress care whether or not they get re-elected. At least on the surface it does not seem that Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid cares about re-election. After all, Reid's state is second in the nation for the highest unemployment rate percentage. The 400,000 voters in Nevada who may make their vote based on the unemployment rate can make or break the results of an election and there are at least that many in Nevada who have a close eye on the actions or inaction of the United States Senate Majority Leader on this issue. Or perhaps Reid is catering more to the needs of the persons who did not vote him into office in an effort to gain bi-partisan support of zero votes? Not a wise strategy for anyone seeking re-election.
It is notable and honorable that Senator Reid has continued to support unemployment extensions through his voting record. That is certainly more than half of the other Senators in high unemployment states. But how many thousands are in Nevada right now wondering if the plug will be pulled on them on June 2nd or have already had that plug pulled and are without any income or an opportunity for a job. To those thousands in Nevada alone, Reid is not getting the job done if the only two choices are no jobs and no extended unemployment insurance. Neither of these are choices the jobless have control to change, Senator Reid.
Each and every day the jobless are making it more and more clear to their elected officials and members of the press that they are unemployed and broke - not uneducated and ignorant. These persons are unemployed through no fault of their own and each and every day wake up to find themselves feeling more and more hopeless as they witness inaction from government to extend benefit amounts beyond the current maximum of 99 weeks, very few jobs on the market, and coping with the stress of finding the need to re-invent themselves and make their resume and their appearance more marketable to compete for the few jobs that even exist.
The unemployed in this country cannot fairly compete for these jobs without the much needed continued assistance from unemployment insurance and 99 weeks does not fit the needs for far too many Americans. It was mentioned in one the previous postings that the jobless only recently started to receive the chance to fairly try to compete for jobs. The economy only began to grow jobs in Spring of this year and the jobs that have been created (although admirable) are still far less than what the economy lost from 2007-2009.
How many more times do we need to tell government that if there are not enough jobs for every American, how can anyone say that 99 weeks of benefits is the maximum? Also, why are we basing assistance for unemployed based on percentages? Would it not be more effective if the assistance was based on population of unemployed?
Texans have 8.2% unemployment and the State of Texas is home to twenty five million Americans. That percentage represents nearly two million who are jobless in that state who were left out of the last extension of weeks from Congress. Why are John Cornyn and Kay Huthison not doing more to advocate for their state they are supposed to be representing? The population of jobless in Texas exceeds the number of jobless in New York. What's the deal with all of the "No" votes? Are Texans really this receptive to voting against their interests because their Senator said it was best? It's true the country is broke but if we can find the money for Houston to get the United States to planet Mars, surely the money exists to aid the jobless in America.
One would think that the two Texas Senators would give their reason for voting "No" based on the lack of available assistance for the jobless in their states and not just criticize the national debt that both parties helped create. It would make more sense politically to grandstand on the issue that not enough is being done for the unemployed more so than criticizing this necessary emergency spending.
Republicans are banking on the short term memory of Americans and many not knowing the full story about how the national debt got so high. There are plenty of accurate publications that illustrate how both parties helped to get the nation in this situation. There's a reason why websites such as factcheck.org have harnessed the audiences of so many and that's the simple fact that anyone can present information as a fact and if there are no news stories to counter that so-called "fact", then what gets reported as the known information becomes the fact and it can be perceived by the masses as factual without doubt.
In this digital age of modern information, there is a need to filter each and every report using sites such as factcheck.org. Unless of course the information that you want to hear versus the information that is factual is able to sway your perception and thinking. After all, there are not many pages of fact that present the information with neat swoosh sounds and classy car salesman televangelist-style "reporters" with a chalkboard. I think my readers know who I am referencing here.
No matter what direction the media chooses to go, we (as a country) need to encourage the lodging giants to offer non-stop campaigns to help get tourism going again. If I had to guess on the issue specific to cities like Las Vegas, it's going to take quite a bit of time for enough persons to be able to gather up enough money for trips to Vegas anytime soon. When people can barely make their rent or mortgage payments, taking off and spending thousands (or even hundreds) on a trip to Vegas is the absolute last thing anyone in this painful and slowly regrowing economy can reasonably afford.
Senators Harry Reid and John Ensign represent the State of Nevada. Their contact information is posted for the public at: http://www.senate.gov/general/contact_information/senators_cfm.cfm?State=NV

Pennsylvania Unemployment Rate 9.0% - 1.1 Million Jobless In Pennsylvania Will Need Tier 5 Unemployment
According to Google Data based on numbers from the US Census, the total population of Pennsylvania is 12,604,767. With the knowledge of March unemployment rates at 9.0% from the USDOL, BLS. Just doing the raw math, this blogger gets the figure of 1,134,429 jobless in that state.
There is a great video on YouTube posted about Pennsylvania unemployment. The video illustrates a smaller number than what this blogger is calculating just using the raw data but chasing the true numbers is tricky, at best. We all do know that there are a number simply not counted. There is a very high number of under-employed all throughout the country.
Check out this YouTube video if you haven't got the chance yet:
The jobless in Pennsylvania are going to need additional weeks of benefits. Even if the numbers were 10,000 unemployed - these people are in this situation through no fault of their own and there are not enough jobs. The math may not match but the people without work match and these Pennsylvanians matter, Congress.
The two United States Senators from Pennsylvania are: Robert P. Casey and the infamous Arlen Specter. The contact information for these Senators is here: http://www.senate.gov/general/contact_information/senators_cfm.cfm?State=PA

Michigan Unemployment Rate 14.1% - Total Jobless In Michigan: 1.4 Million And They Need #Tier5
According to the United States Census Bureau, Population Division and the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, and Wikipedia, the State of Michigan has a total population of 9,969,727 and an unemployment rate at 14.1% (underemployment is much higher).
This state, like many others, has numbers comparable to the Great Depression unemployment numbers. But worse if you factor conditions such as population and take the percentages out of the equation and look at the total number of people affected. There are at least 1.4 Million unemployed in the State of Michigan. Or to be more specific, 1,405,732, at least.
The two United States Senators from this state are Debbie Stabenow and Carl Levin. Their contact information is located here: http://www.senate.gov/general/contact_information/senators_cfm.cfm?State=MI
The voting record for these two Senators has always been in favor of the unemployed. This is one of the main reasons why so many millions of unemployed who have exhausted their benefits are looking to these Senators for action. (And not just the unemployed from the State of Michigan are asking for the support of Tier 5 Unemployment). Many others who feel they do not have representation in the state they are in are also seeking assistance from all Senators.
Tier 5 Unemployment Insurance is a necessity that many jobless Americans are continuing to band together and fight for each day. For more information to join the efforts of these campaigns, please see the campaigns for Tier 5 Unemployment at the top right corner of this blog on the sidebar.
Information will be updated as it is known.

Ohio Current Unemployment 11% - 1.3 Million Unemployed In Ohio Deserving Of Tier 5 Unemplyoment Insurance
The United States Census Bureau and Google, Inc. report the population of Ohio at 11,542,645 . Based on the data collected from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, this would put the number of jobless Ohioans at 1,269,691 or 1.3 Million simplified.
Numerous economists have given testimony to Congress that it will take years for the job market to fully recover. The unemployed in Ohio as any other state need the security of knowing they have a safety net when there are simply not enough jobs. Where are people supposed to turn? There are no jobs.
Jobless are not choosing this situation.
Unemployed persons in Ohio are sharing information and keeping each other up to date on these forums:
Four Pillars Forum: Ohio Unemployment Benefits Extension
See the response one of the contributing members of this forum got from Senator Sherrod Brown:
Well, It's encouraging that the Senator supports it and it seems our message has been received. Thank you for being specific in your response Senator Brown but let me tell you how we are going to pay for it so we can save valuable debate time: we're going to tack it straight to the national debt just like every other unemployment insurance extension done throughout history.
The funding is necessary. The need for funding is past due. This situation is an emergency and should be treated as such. Now I'm not being unreasonable. If there are ways down the road that the government can find suitable ways to offset the spending - by all means do it. But don't spend this much time debating, stalling, debating, and stalling to only give the end result of scratching your head.
Print the checks. Find something to cut later. Prioritize the needs of people just like the people are having to prioritize their own needs right now in nearly every household, regardless of employment status.
George Voinovich is the other Senator from Ohio. This is the Republican Senator from this state. To his credit, he did vote "Yes" on the last effort to extend dates. What response is he giving for Tier 5?

"My response from Senator Sherrod Brown on a tier 5 Wed 4/28/10" Dear Mr._______, Thank you for getting in touch with me about Unemployment Insurance and for sharing your personal story. I understand the dire circumstances that many unemployed Ohioans are facing through no fault of their own. On April 15th, Congress passed The Continuing Extension Act of 2010, which provides a two-month extension for unemployment insurance retroactively through June 2, 2010. As debate continues on this issue, I will keep pressuring Congress to extend Unemployment Insurance – particularly for high unemployment states like Ohio – through the end of 2010. Additionally, I support a Tier 5 and am working with other Senators to determine how many weeks would be feasible and how to pay for it. To apply for unemployment or to learn more about Ohio Unemployment Benefits, you may wish to visit http://unemployment.ohio.gov/. Thank you again for reaching out to my office on this topic that is vital to the strength of Ohio’s economy and workforce. Sincerely, Sherrod Brown United States Senator

Jobless In America - Making The Case For Tier 5 Unemployment Assistance
This map represents the current unemployment rate ranges for each state in the country. It is courtesy of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_U.S._states_by_unemployment_rate and open for distribution to the public under the permissions to distribute clause posted at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Map_of_us_states_by_unemployment_rate.png.
It is the goal of this blogger to continue posting the known unemployment rates as they are updated for each state. This is an effort to illustrate and educate the public to the numbers of jobless in America.
The "Jobless In America" series of articles that have been published are geared to urge the Congress and the United States President, Barack Obama, to address the needs for the long term unemployed through more extensive job creation programs and by adding additional weeks of benefits to jobless Americans who have expired benefits. The need for this action is real and the urgency is past due.
All you need to do is spread the word to your members of Congress and fellow unemployed so that the facts remain the facts and the gravity of this situation is appreciated by all elected officials in Washington, D.C.. On the sidebar you will see the links for states under the "Jobless In America" section of this blog. It is the intent of this blogger to not only cover all states but also provide information to the jobless about the current unemployment numbers, resources, and general information.
Members of Congress and the President, please address the needs of so many jobless Americans who are in desperate need of action from the federal government in these terrible economic times. Please do so in a timely fashion and avoid partisan bickering in the process. With so many millions of Americans unemployed, politicizing the needs of jobless is an embarrassment to this great nation.
When considering all legislation pertaining to the unemployed, do so with admiration, careful consideration, empathy, and please do so swiftly. With so many factors uncertain for the jobless, the American people need to know that the federal government plans to address the needs of so many millions with the care and the speed of action that these Americans who are unemployed through no fault of their own deserve.
