Providing Unemployment Insurance to Immigrants and Other Excluded Workers

NEW YORK, NEW YORK - DECEMBER 10: Excluded workers, New Yorkers who had been shut out of pandemic-era assistance, march with their community allies to Governor Kathy Hochul’s midtown office on December 10, 2021 in New York City. The workers, most of whom are recent immigrants to America, are demanding an additional $3 billion for the Excluded Workers Fund. The Excluded Workers Fund was set up earlier this year to provide financial support for New Yorkers who had been shut out of pandemic-era assistance including stimulus checks and unemployment insurance.
