What Is the Average Weekly Unemployment Benefit?

The president of the union has said how disappointed and unsatisfied she is with such an offer even though they're taking it to their members to vote. The average weekly unemployment benefit in the United States in August of 2022, that's the most recent data I could be sure of, was $389 per week. If you earn less than $23,000 and you're part of a family of three, you're in the poor people category, the bottom of the barrel in our society.
