Some State Governors

are whining that because their states are in the financial crapper, they want to shaft the unemployed by cutting their already meager benefits.

Of course people can't move to another state to get bigger benefits; the UI law doesn't work that way. If I were to move to Oregon, for example, I still would draw from Nevada's UI because I worked in Nevada, not in Oregon. Oregon's UI benefits are more generous than Nevada's, but it doesn't matter when an unemployed out-of-stater like me moves there.
