Unemployment Insurance Offset

Boston.com Business reports that Massaschusetts, Rhode Island, Maine, Colorado, Utah, Illinois, Louisiana, Minnesota, and South Dakota all reduce state unemployment insurance benefits if a claimant is receiving Social Security benefits. Another state, Ohio, denies unemployment benefits altogether to those on Social Security benefits. The American Association of Retired People (AARP) has started lobbying these states to change their laws.
