Someone in that state office stole the money for themselves...

[carlettesouthern-robert]

Sad! Clerical error!!
BS on the part of the State, gaslighting, pay these people who deserve every penny!
Reopen the damn PORTAL for them.
Who ever made the mistake, should be held accountable.
Pay these essential workers interest on their money!
BOGUS NONSENSE!
It's why people dislike government!!
Always Excuses,
the Governor could do something if she wanted to!
Governor needs to step in NOW.💥

Lol therapists in a school are front line ? NO. Especially when schools went remote not long after

[DeutscheStrande-glxi]

Oh shocker tv actors didn’t get paid, so?

[ksomebodyful]

I remember when Diblasio stated that essential workers were to receive 25, 000. Especially, teachers who worked with frontline worker's children.

Omgggg... as lm browsing the news right now, 08/14/24 lve been in the medical career before, during and after the Pandemic as a front line worker. And yes, l was also promised to be paid..& it never came. 😢 Where am l right now? Sitting in a hospital stretcher as a patient myself, fatigued... over worked, exhausted being seen because for the past month or more. I've done is triage patients of all ages with covid19 !!!? And as lm sitting here in this stretcher cause lm having mild breathing problems and feeling sick!? I'm thinking, Omg..now my paycheck will be less and l will not be compensated for time off required and ordered here by the ER Doctor. Yeah, we do not get paid for getting sick and just follow Drs orders!!!? It's been so tough and still is...all my bills are so over due..its simple sooo frustrating. However, we all in the medical career must have a pleasant smiling clown face for all and treat patients with dignity, respect, and courtesy...😔 BUT who is treating us as such..? NO ONE..!!!? It would've been so nice IF we all front lines medical staff be compensated for all we do? Our job environment will be less stressful, as we all endure every single day for some long hours shift...!!!? I guess, dreams are meant to be just... dreams!!!!...as they say...😔 Please be safed....

Wasn't trump in office when this occurred 😂 I mean items just a coincidence right😂😂

Those inn doubt use swimmers nose plugs and swimmers ear wax for three weeks. Even cervical collar for two or three weeks. And use swimming chemicals to clean house and in shower or bath. Dilooted for pools. Vs er risk. Up to three months but relief should be in a matter of even a half day!
