It may be great news but it still isn't certain. The article did point out that the dems may not entirely approve of this deal as it allows the extension of the tax cuts for the wealthy, something they were not happy about. Although I think this is as good as anyone is going to get because we know that there is no way in hell that republicans will approve further extensions of UI without "paying for it".
Well, this is very good for those that will be helped by it. And there will be many, so I am happy that this compromise has happened so quickly.
I will be a "99'er" in a few very short weeks, so it will not help me. But I have not lost hope for Tier 5 or similar. This 13 month extension is acknowledgment that this is not going away any time soon. Hopefully a Tier 5 or some similar sort of help for the "99'ers" will be the next step.
