It says they won’t be eligible for Medicare but
if in this economy they can’t find a job are they
eligible for unemployment comp?
99 weeks etc.

This is the straw that breaks America’s back.
It must not stand.

If they pay unemployment tax they will be. Otherwise it’s a violation of law to tax them for services they cannot legally receive.

This is such a mess it’s staggering.

Good ultimately for America though, because the outrage as more of this becomes understood, it will force congress to act or be thrown from office. It will bring it ALL to a head.

If you can’t find a job and never had one you don’t get unemployment compensation. European systems do provide unemployment to students.

“It says they won’t be eligible for Medicare but...”

That’s ok, we don’t have the money to pay Medicare for the current recipients, much less the folks that expect to collect sometime in the future, whether citizen, documented immigrant, or semi-documented immigrant.
