The American public is holding its collective breath while
this work stoppage idles more than 85,000 workers across the country.
Clearly the best way to settle this dispute is by both
parties coming to the bargaining table. In the meantime, I would hope that
workers' claims to unemployment benefits be given every consideration.
Unemployment compensation determinations are made by states. Nothing in federal
law prohibits states from paying these workers if allowed by state statute.
