Pandemic Unemployment Benefits Expire On Labor Day

From the long-term unemployed to people who usually wouldn't get unemployment — like gig workers — nearly 9 million Americans no longer get benefits.

COVID-19 pandemic unemployment benefits have now expired. "My inner voice is just me yelling and screaming, 'What am I going to do? What am I going to do? What am I going to do?,'" said Gustavo Maria. According to a tally from the Associated Press, 8.9 million people lost their benefits on Labor Day.
