Unemployment Extension Does Not Help Those Who Have Exhausted Their 99 Weeks

"Help is on the way for 2.5 million Americans, including thousands in Michigan, who are unemployed.

The U.S. House of Representatives passed an unemployment extension on Thursday by a vote of 272 to 152. President Barack Obama could sign the extension as early as Thursday evening.

In some states the extension will mean retroactive payments could go out as early as next week, but there's one group that won't benefit from the extension.

They're known as '99ers,' people who have used up almost two years of unemployment benefits."
