We recently co-hosted an event about the "time tax." That's the time lost to red tape and paperwork when applying for benefits—like pandemic unemployment insurance and stimulus checks.
Here's what our panelists had to say:
Julia Simon-Mishel, a supervising attorney at Philadelphia Legal Assistance, on the three new federal unemployment insurance programs.
Nina Olson, the Executive Director of the Center for Taxpayer Rights, on getting stimulus checks.
Pamela Herd, professor of public policy at Georgetown University, on how the government has made processes easier in some programs.
