FIX THE SYSTEM NOW!
MILLIONS OF NEW YORKERS ARE WAITING FOR BENEFITS!
INCREASE CALL CENTERS TODAY!
STREAMLINE THE HIRING PROCESS!
ADD ADDITIONAL WORKERS!

The Department of Labor was not prepared for this kind of influx.

Claims in Western New York are up 3300%

The DOL says its call volume increased 16,000% and web traffic is up over 900% which keeps crashing its system.

“We usually get 50,000 calls per week. We got 1.2 million calls yesterday and 7.8 million calls last week." NYS UNEMPLOYMENT

The labor department says it has added servers and increased bandwidth to accommodate the extra traffic. Call center hours have also been extended.

WE THE PEOPLE OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA CALL ON THE DEPARTMENT OF LABOR AND PRESIDENT TRUMP TO EXPEDITE THE 3.3 MILLION CALLS THAT HAVE CRASHED THE SYSTEM. APOLOGIES FROM GOVERNORS AND PROMISED BACK PAYMENTS ARE NOT ENOUGH TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM. THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AND MAJOR REFORM MUST OCCUR NOW. SIGN THIS PETITION TODAY & MAKE THIS MESSAGE LOUD AND CLEAR!
