Employment Secretary Pushes Maryland Insurance Bills
Employment Secretary Rita C Davidson urged the Maryland Legislature to enact two amendments to the State Unemployment Insurance Law. House Bills 1156 and 1160 would extend coverage to about 90 000 workers and add 13 weeks of extended benefits, funded half by federal government and half by employers. The second amendment would raise the weekly benefit from 65 to 78 dollars as a step toward 65 percent of the average insured wage by 1972.
