http://forbes.com/feeds/ap/2009/02/02/ap5995986.html On February 2, 2009 New Jersey Senator Robert Menendez said that New Jersey unemployed would largely benefit from a 900 billion dollar stimulus package. This package includes $72 million dollars in worker training and services, $214 million dollars for unemployment insurance, $200 million dollars for emergency food assistance, and money would be used for emergency housing and health benefits. In the end, a package of $819 billion dollars was approved ,yet, no republican voted for it. In my opinion, I believe this package was a good idea and it well pave the road to fix our economy. Also, I believe it well help the unemployed to seek new jobs and to survive until they can fund themselves.
