Washington, DC – Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky was among those who voted against Extended Unemployment Compensation (EUC), Feb 6.

In December, Paul stated in a FOX news interview that he was against more than 26 weeks of unemployment benefits.

“If you extend it beyond that, you do a disservice to these workers. When you allow people to be on unemployment insurance for 99 weeks, you’re causing them to become part of this perpetual unemployed group in our economy” said Paul.
