Barack Obama promised he would veto the tax cut extenders bill for business research and development if the Senate passed bill to renew the federal unemployment extension with retro-active benefits for five months was not put to a vote in the House of Representatives. We ask that he honor that promise to bring that bill to a vote in the House to begin the process of renewing this valuable benefit to the unemployed. The economy and Americans are suffering because Americans are being denied a benefit that has been and is still being paid for from contributions from employers.
