(CNSNews.com) – “Even as the economy creates jobs, too many Americans find themselves on the sidelines watching as the rich get richer, the poor get poorer and the middle class are getting squeezed and squeezed,” Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) said on Thursday.
“There is no greater challenge this country has than income inequality. And we must do something about it,” he told a news conference on Capitol Hill.

“There are lots of things that should be done, but the first thing is to make sure that those people who are waiting and waiting to find a job still get the important check that they deserve. Unemployment compensation is something that is good for the economy.”
