Connecticut unemployment calculatoronnecticut unem

Has anyone else gotten this message when doing their weekly filing ? My last day of active duty was 4/15. I have called and was told I don’t qualify because I didn’t work in Ct. I know that’s not true and the the person rushed me off the phone. I thankfully got some help at my local American job center with fixing it after I got denied. The problem I’m having now is I can’t complete the weekly filing because it won’t let me fill out the address portion. I can’t speak to someone until Friday but clearly their staff isn’t up to date on veteran filing. Any and all help is welcome 🤗

Can you imagine getting unemployment during a legal strike? We have been told by SEIU 1000 and others that Newsom is just so pro labor. I am trying to count on 1 hand what if anything he has done for State workers.

-The La Follette Administration would swiftly move to pivot away from Luce’s collaboration with the Soviet Union. Within days of the Japanese surrender to the United States in October of 1945, the President’s brother, Senate Majority Leader Robert M. La Follette Jr., would rise to demand that his fellow Farmer-Labor Senators make their choice between “America and democracy or the Soviet Union and totalitarianism,” harkening to his brother’s time suppressing the Revolution; Secretary of State MacArthur would buttress this sentiment, declaring “the Communist threat is a global one. Its successful advance in one sector threatens the destruction of every other sector. You cannot appease or otherwise surrender to communism in Asia.” As MacArthur presided over the occupation of Japan and Korea by American forces, Soviet leader Lazar Kaganovich accused the United States of arming former Japanese allies in the Russian Far East and China to resist the Soviet advance eastward, allegations the Administration has denied.
-Meanwhile, former President Luce would lead outcry against the organization of the Japanese occupation government, which has granted President La Follette the ability to rule by decree, a power he has used to institute universal suffrage and enact his New Dawn, proclaiming a future where the United States and Japan might stand side by side against an unnamed outside threat that observers have universally understood to refer to communism.
-Despite his own reservations about foreign aid, the La Follette Administration has extensively funded and armed Chinese christian socialist leader Feng Yuxiang, whose Guominjun remains the nation’s ruling party despite opposition from both nationalists and communists, yet has declared a strict neutrality between the growing American and Soviet spheres of influence. Soviet authorities would accuse La Follette of rigging elections in occupied Korea and Japan for Syngman Rhee and Socialist Tetsu Katayama, respectively, charges the President has denied despite echoes from Charles Coughlin, who would claim that millions in US development aid was funneled to promote La Follette’s political allies.
-The president has pursued a policy of staunch neutrality in the Franco-British War, stepping back from the Luce Administration’s support of the British Empire to pursue vastly expanded trade with both warring states through a series of free trade agreements mediated by General MacArthur and Trade Envoy Earl Warren. With the League of Nations collapsing, La Follette has floated the idea of new international mediation bodies, inviting Peruvian President Jose Carlos Mariategui and Thai King Rama VI to the White House in 1947 to discuss a wide reaching alliance to promote trade and unity across the Pacific, dubbed by some as the All-Pacific Treaty Organization (APTO).
-Negotiating on behalf of the newly independent Philippines, La Follette would successfully pressure the French government into relinquishing the island of Moroland, which has quickly become a hub for American port access. The United States has established an allied government in Indonesia under the leadership of moderate socialist Sutan Sjahrir while annexing several Pacific archipelagos such as Samoa.
-In South America, Secretary of State MacArthur has sided with Venezuela against Great Britain in a territorial dispute over the boundaries of the colony of Guyana, citing the Adams Doctrine.

Domestic Policy:
-”Win the peace.” The closing words of La Follette’s address announcing the final victory of the United States over Japan have defined his presidency as a quest for a national rebirth. Rueing the presence of “too many idle men and women,” the President would dedicate himself to proving that “men can have work and be free.” Indeed, buoyed by an expansionist monetary policy, the nation has seen the fastest GDP growth in its history, a spike in international trade supported by improvements to containerization, low unemployment rates, and new dominance as the world’s unmatched financial and industrial leader. However, in light of annual inflation rates never falling below 21%, and peaking as high as 32% in the summer of 1946, the value of the dollar has fallen as quickly as the economic wildfire has expanded, an issue that a national series of price controls has failed to keep in check. The falling price of global silver served to moderate inflation into 1948, however.
-Opening his economic war with a victorious salvo, La Follette would work alongside New York Senator Dean Alfange to pass the Alfange Tax Reform Act of 1946, raising the nation’s top tax rate to 76% and the land value tax rate to 25%, while instituting a 100% tax on war profits to be distributed into child tax credits via the Sheen Amendment, introduced by Catholic priest turned Illinois Senator Fulton Sheen. Further, the Alfange Act would authorize the formation of a Department of Education and expansion of the National Youth Administration, which has organized hundreds of thousands of largely low-income children to provide access to after school job training, community building, and college preparatory programs, including pathways to college aid for young veterans on top of the GI Bill known Pepper Grants after sponsoring Senator Claude Pepper (FL-FL). President La Follette would host a press conference with Private Henry Kissinger, the first recipient of a Pepper Grant in receiving an international relations degree from the University of Chicago.
-Making extensive use of executive orders, the President would pardon all anti-war figures convicted by the Luce Administration of violating the Sedition Act, declare a national moratoria on the payment of mortgage debts, and authorize the nation’s first federal eugenics programs, sterilizing en masse those declared to be mentally ill or criminally inclined, while sanctioning the use of convict labor to plant trees and engage in other beautification projects in an attempt to spark a dual environmental and urban renewal. Eugenics enforcement has raised questions regarding the program’s lack of transparency and the immense power of low level administrators, with some accusing the system of allowing prisons and mental asylums to unfairly persecute homosexuals and other disfavored patients; La Follette has defended the effort by pointing to the decades of state level eugenics programs.
-La Follette would use Executive Order 4582 to form the Department of Information, justified on the basis of expanding the wartime Information & Censorship Board. While the department would persist in peacetime, Vancouver semanticist Samuel Hayakawa would lead opposition nationally to the Department, testifying before Congress on his work “Language in Thought & Action,” used to form committees of correspondence that have mailed over a million letters to legislators calling for congressional action to dissolve the department. In the face of mounting opposition, La Follette would dissolve the Department of Information in April of 1947, while maintaining an 11 member Un-American Activities Board to monitor journalism, ostensibly to prevent the leaking of classified information.
-Hayakawa has remained a high profile figure in American politics, calling for the declaration of English as the national language, defending the President’s support for immigration restrictions, and working alongside actor Ronald Reagan to call for reparations for the several thousand Japanese-Americans interned by the Luce Adminstration.
-Taking inspiration from the suggestions of comedian-politician Will Rogers, La Follette would announce millions of dollars worth of agricultural surpluses to be sent to aid in the rebuilding of Europe and the Pacific, demanding that “America’s great productive power be available to all people instead of killing pigs and plowing under cotton.” La Follette, through his Secretary of State, would introduce the “MacArthur Plan” in May of 1947, providing billions of dollars of economic and infrastructural aid to Asian nations under American occupation.
-The MacArthur Plan would soon come to alienate large sections of Farmer-Labor’s isolationist wing, with party doyens such as William Lemke leading a filibuster of congressional funding for the program. While La Follette would attempt to secure its passage with the support of the opposition, Mississippi Senator George Sheldon would use the support of Thomas Schall to lead an isolationist revolt among Progressive Senators, upholding Lemke’s filibuster and sinking the bill over the summer of 1947. In response, La Follette would claim over national radio that “some subversive elements, in league with political charlatans, are prostituting liberalism for their own devious purposes. Like vermin, they are infesting and polluting democratic organizations and the government itself.” Accusing God of striking Thomas Schall blind for his blindness to the struggles of workers, La Follette would compare Schall to accused war criminals turned politicians Pedro Del Valle and Rafael Trujillo.
-Accusing this political “vermin” of plotting to undermine his presidency, the President would for the first time personally endorse the concept of a 20th Amendment to shift to the president the powers of Congress, restricting the republic’s legislative branch to a mere veto power, while arguing that the need for a strong legislature would be replaced with a 21st Amendment establishing a process for national referendums. To lobby for the amendment, La Follette has turned to his loyal National Progressives of America, refuting criticisms of the party’s banner and fascist tendencies by arguing that the “X” symbolism refers to the multiplication of wealth and the “X” indicating a voters’ choice upon a democratic ballot.
-However, the President would begin to alienate the media empire of William Randolph Hearst with his harsh rhetoric against erstwhile Hearst allies Pedro Del Valle and Rafael Trujillo. Despite the sympathies of the elderly former President, the transfer of the organization’s primary management to heir William Randolph Hearst Jr. in early 1948 has moved the media empire squarely into the Progressive camp, with Hearst Jr. himself refusing to deny presidential aspirations.
-Within months of taking office, La Follette broke publicly with the nation’s most powerful labor leader: John L. Lewis. Standing by the way, La Follette would maintain the executive prohibition of striking by the nationalized General Trades Union and keep moderate George Meany as Labor Secretary, leading Lewis to denounce La Follette as a traitor to his party’s principles as he resigned from the union he had once been president of. Further, Lewis would denounce La Follette’s continuation of the Lindbergh Administration’s call for the formation of employer syndicates to counterbalance organized labor.
-Beginning in December of 1945, Lewis and allies Homer Martin, William Boyle, Walter Reuther, and Jimmy Hoffa would organize the Congress of Industrial Organizations, built explicitly to act as an independent alternative to the General Trades Union and circumventing government requirements of GTU membership by permitting dual affiliation. The CIO has spread rapidly through coal country, with most members of the United Mine Workers and Teamsters Unions within the GTU affiliating with the CIO within months. Lewis has led the CIO to organize chapters in every state except for Santo Domingo, triggering several small scale strikes that he has criticized the La Follette Administration for not intervening in on behalf of strikers, making his case in Congress through the support of Tennessee Senator George Berry. President La Follette would defend his conduct, contrasting his decision to mediate a deal with representatives of both parties to the willingness by the Luce Administration to declare striking workers seditionists. Lewis would dispatch ally and organizer Dorothy Day to rally striking workers, only to be arrested by the newly formed NSA and publicly accused of communist sympathies by J. Edgar Hoover. Day would be released after a week in captivity, with La Follette claiming responsibility for securing her freedom.
-Fueling Lewis’s dissenters would be a call from La Follette to reform the Farmer-Labor Party charter to weaken the role of unions in controlling the party in favor of an “alliance between producer, consumer, independent business, and professional interests.” Rejected soundly by Farmer-Labor, the plank would become the core of the platform of the National Progressives of America, an independent committee founded by La Follette loyally supporting the President and operating as a de facto political party in areas where the president’s opponents rule Farmer-Labor.
-As the legacy of Milford W. Howard’s Alabama Model is debated, Illinois Governor Paul Douglas, the nation’s only Single Taxer in the position, has launched his own attempt at crafting an “Illinois Model,” succeeding in making the state the first in the nation to pass a 100% land value tax in 1948 after a deal between the state’s Single Tax, Farmer-Labor, and Liberty League legislators to raise the tax, cut spending, and reject a right-to-work law.
-Despite the overall composition of the Farmer-Labor victory in the midterms being largely divided between acolytes of Lewis and La Follette, the President would declare a resounding victory, stating that “a beginning has been made here and now. Not in 1952, not in 1948, but here in 1946. The state we shall build as rapidly as firm foundations can be laid.” Further, La Follette, seeking to repackage his economic policies while maintaining a direct connection to the Lindbergh presidency, would dub them “the New Dawn,” vowing that “each program should be so framed that it stimulates individual initiative.”
-Despite the hostility of the fast organizing Lewis wing of his party, La Follette would move swiftly to use executive power to appoint an Atomic Energy Commission under the aegis of the Department of Science and Technology and a Healthcare Planning Board, with the implicit implication of being a precursor to a national healthcare system.
-In an attempt to seize the ideological tides within the party, La Follette and his allies would issue a manifesto entitled “Win the Peace,” with cover art depicting a new dawn, calling for universal healthcare, federal funding to municipalize utilities, an interstate highway system, the reformation of organized farmers’ co-operatives, the nationalization of the Federal Reserve and its submission to executive control, a national system of hydroelectric and nuclear power, immigration restrictions, a constitutional amendment instituting a referendum system, co-operative public works programs for the unemployed, works’ projects operating as state owned corporations, a jobs guarantee, the nationalization of credit, crop management, and the formation of employer syndicates.
-However, the nation’s economic boom would largely rob the President of the political capital necessary for his vision of co-operative unemployment works, and the administration, though supporting the introduction of legislation by legendary Maryland Farmer-Laborite David J. Lewis, has relegated such issues to the backburner.
-Representative John Dingell would introduce the National Healthcare Act with the support of the La Follette administration, only to find his attempts largely stonewalled by congressional leadership, where Speaker J. Lister Hill would instead back a competing bill to authorize federal subsidies to states for a means tested program of insurance for the poor. With La Follette pushing for the full bill in a motley alliance with Alf Landon, the struggle would come to an impasse as Congress failed to pass any sort of significant healthcare reform legislation. However, a bill introduced by Progressive former Speaker of the House Harold Hitz Burton has passed, authorizing additional funding for hospital construction but no fundamental changes. Similarly, Hill would prove lethargic in the face of President La Follette’s attempt to revive crop management, pointing to the nation’s agricultural surplus.
-Speaker Hill would oppose the President less successfully on the issue of immigration, where freshman Federalist Gerald Ford and Farmer-Laborite Senator Walter Baring would partner on the Immigration Act of 1948, establishing a minimum quota of 100 and maximum of 2,000 from any states decolonized in Africa, while authorizing funding for a larger police presence on the nation’s Southern border. However, the administration has presided over a program to recruit Japanese scientists as well as those fleeing war in Europe, with a particular emphasis on rocketry.
-In the nation’s 1947 budget, Congress, with nearly bipartisan support, would authorize a half a billion dollars for a pilot project to fund municipalities in the purchase of utilities from private holders, an effort hailed by the Hearst Press as the administration’s greatest domestic achievement.
-The greatest conflict between Hill and La Follette would emerge over the interstate highway system. President La Follette would win the public support of HIll’s ostensible ally Carl Elliott and rock-ribbed conservative Federalist Robert Hale, expecting the Interstate Highway Act to pass with little resistance. To his shock, the Speaker of the House has moved to block consideration of the bill after its passage in the Senate, opposing it upon states’ rights grounds and arguing instead for a bill to fund state highway improvements.
-The President would decisively break with Hill over the highway issue, describing him as among the “vermin” holding back the nation and allying with both Carl Elliott and Jim Folsom to back 29 year old George Wallace in a primary challenge against the Speaker. While leaving Hill’s career in limbo and fueling rumors of a challenge from within the Farmer-Labor caucus if he is able to win re-election, the long serving speaker has turned in an awkward solace to the support of John L. Lewis.
-A similar conflict has arisen over Maine Representative Sumner Pike’s Energy Security Bill, blocked by Speaker Hill, which would authorize $30,000,000,000 in funding for the study of nuclear power and the expansion of the system of hydroelectric power. John L. Lewis has emerged as the Bill’s leading opponent, accusing of it of serving as a front to smother the highly unionized coal industry.
-In an attempt to rally the nation, the President has suggested hosting military parades, an idea which has not yet been put into practice.
-Despite, or perhaps owing to, President Lindbergh’s public criticism of the atomic bombing of Tokyo, La Follette would unprecedentedly appoint the former President as Secretary of the Air Force to replace longtime Secretary Benjamin Foulois.
-Herbert Hoover, Hamilton Fish III, and other public opponents of the use of atomic weapons have had their cause galvanized by John Hersey’s book Tokyo, graphically describing the fallout of the bombings on the city and its population.
-Washington Senator Lois de Lafayette Washburn, among the few openly pro-Japanese members of Congress and an open proponent of the removal of the nation’s Jewish population, would be appointed to chair a committee investigating the circumstances of Aaron Burr Houston’s victory in the 1940 election, including other myrmidons of the conspiracy oriented wing of Farmer-Labor such as John Horne Blackmore. While unearthing evidence of record campaign funding, Washburn’s theatrical manner, attempting to make witnesses pledge loyalty to the memory of Lindbergh and calling poet Ezra Pound as a witness despite no involvement in the matter at hand, would be widely ridiculed, with Will Rogers famously describing Washburn as “having missed many good chances to shut up.” Unsurprisingly, Washburn would lose re-nomination in a landslide in 1946 to moderate Governor Homer T. Bone in a challenge to the primacy of Clarence Dill in the state’s politics.
-Meanwhile, prohibitionist Farmer-Laborites Robert Shuler and Benjamin Bubar would find support in launching a committee to investigate Hollywood. While winning the support of the President in rooting out “vigorous exponents of the Japanese line in the motion picture industry,” the Bubar Committee, and concomitant House Kefauver Committee, hearings have largely focused on accusations of indecent language, violence, and suggestions of homosexual behavior.
-The Bubar Committee has maintained a secondary focus on “lavender lads,” in the words of Shuler, citing the homosexuality of David I. Walsh, who would die of a brain hemorrhage in June of 1947, as a precedent to investigate the private lives of government officials and prominent celebrities such as Greta Garbo and Tennessee Williams. Sensational testimony from Ambassador to Bolivia John Peurifoy of a “homosexual underground” in the State Department has led to 91 resignations among staff and the rapid promotion of younger individuals cleared of homosexuality such as a newly hired counsel named Roy Cohn.
-A longtime Wisconsin La Follette associate, Postmaster General William T. Evjue would resign from office within days of the 1946 midterm elections, fiercely denouncing Phil as a “traitor to democracy.” His replacement, Thomas Duncan, would serve as the administration’s primary envoy to Farmer-Labor socialists. However, Duncan would be arrested on March 7th of 1948 on manslaughter charges after a fatal car crash from which Duncan had fled the scene, charges upon which the President has refused to comment.
-Infamous for widespread rumors of adultery and known throughout society as a dilettante, former First Lady Clare Boothe Luce would publicly announce her conversion to the Catholic Church in 1946 while campaigning for a Senate seat in Connecticut, citing reflection following the death of her daughter and the tutelage of Father Fulton Sheen, himself elected to the Senate from Illinois.
-First Lady Isen La Follette has gained notoriety for her outspoken pacifism, refusing to endorse the Third Pacific War even as her husband waged it, and stating in a leaked private letter her shame at pinning military honors onto her husband.
-Former Commonwealth presidential candidate and noted activist for black civil rights Oswald Garrison Villard has criticized the President, declaring Phil to be a poor listener for lobbyists compared to his brother.
-California Farmer-Laborite Bob Shuler, who previously accused the Luces of adultery, would continue his moral crusade with attacks upon the President and First Lady for their heavy drinking, accusing Isen of buying “ornate European gold goblets at $1,000 per dozen.” Though a nominal ally of the Administration, Shuler’s comments have been extensively used by La Follette’s opponents, prompting the President to claim the goblets were thrifted.
-Deeply entrenched in the state of Missouri, the Mormon Church has reached 4,000,000 members within the United States, constituting 2.3% of the nation’s population, albeit a majority in only Missouri. Benefitting heavily from the Fourth Great Awakening, the Church has elected as its new President 71 year old Israel A. Smith, notable for organizing the Union Party as a young man serving as a Representative from neighboring Iowa.
-Stewart Hamblen and Roy Acuff have emerged as the nation’s greatest country stars, but both have gained controversy for their political involvement, Hamblen as an admirer of President La Follette and Acuff as an outspoken Progressive Federalist. Other rising stars include composer George Gershwin and singer Frank Sinatra. Hit films include 1946’s tale of returning servicemen The Best Years of Our Lives and the epic Citizen Kane, heralded by some as the greatest film of the century. Written, produced, and directed by Orson Welles, the film loosely depicts the life of William Randolph Hearst, depicting protagonist Charles Kane as a womanizing abuser whose newspapers bend the truth and maneuver him into a disastrous tenure in the White House. In response, the Hearst press has prohibited any mention of the film in its pages.
-Criminal mastermind and politician Al Capone would die in federal prison in 1948, less notoriously, legendary baseball player Babe Ruth has passed away.
-Notable inventions during President La Follette’s term include the junction translator of physicist William Shockley, the Burger King Whopper burger, and the world’s first commercially available computer, IBM’s UNIVAC 1, while the Air Force’s Project Diana has resulted in the first radio broadcast to the moon. On the cultural front, the National Basketball Association has been founded.
​
Citizen Kane portrays the grandiose life of former President William Randolph Hearst, much to his chagrin.
The Supreme Court:
-Justice Lyda Conley, appointed by President Houston in 1917, would die in May of 1946, followed by Justice Daniel F. Cohalan in June. At the advice of Chief Justice Hugo Black, La Follette would appoint to Conley’s seat a former counsel to Milford W. Howard, Maud McClure Kelly. Despite the defections of a half dozen Farmer-Labor Senators, Kelly’s nomination would be approved.
-To replace Cohalan, La Follette would turn to Indiana Senator Sherman Minton, who had come within a vote of unseating his brother as Majority Leader in 1941. Burying the hatchet against reported protestations from his brother, La Follette would nominate Minton to outcry from the ACLU and conservative organizations, citing Minton’s stated belief that economic relief trumped the constitution. Archconservative Missouri Farmer-Laborite J. Bracken Lee would lead opposition to Minton’s nomination, with the Indianan gaining fame for defending himself by snapping back at Lee “you cannot eat the constitution!” With all but a handful of Progressives in opposition, joined by Lee and a motley coalition of anti-La Follette Farmer-Laborites, Minton would be confirmed by a narrow vote of 53-45.
​
Elderly Marshall Philippe Petain, having ruled France for over thirty years since he emerged as the nation's greatest hero in the Great War, has led it through conflict with the United Kingdom.
World Events:
-As Mexican Empress Maria Jose approaches the age of eighty, Crown Princess Maria Gizela has unexpectedly abdicated any claim to the throne in favor of her four year old grandson, Maximiliano.
-Remaining out of any major conflicts and generations into its single tax experiment, Iran has become the largest economy in the Middle East, surpassing the wartorn Hashemite Caliphate.
-In a shock to the British Empire and a historic victory for Conservative leader Robert Manion, Canada would vote to declare formal independence from the British Empire in 1945. With elements of the British tabloids accusing the American government of influencing the referendum, the Canadian government has negotiated to remain in the Franco-British War in a limited capacity amidst their disaffiliation. South Africa, however, has completely withdrawn from the conflict after internal turmoil fueled by Afrikaner nationalist opposition to the British, while the colonies of India and Somalia have been promised a quick post-war independence.
-Both Republican Spain and Francisco Rolão Preto’s fascist Portugal have honored historic commitments to the United Kingdom by joining the conflict against France, with promises of expansion in North Africa luring Caliph Abdullah into the fray as well. However, successful French defenses inspired by Petain have drawn out the conflict in the colonies, while an advance into Spain has led Petain to proclaim a rival Spanish government under the leadership of General Francisco Franco in a bid for support from the Spanish right. The war has proceeded heavily upon the sea as well, with the British Navy dealing a decisive defeat to a French fleet off the coast of Sardinia.
-Petain’s government has been accused by British Prime Minister Oliver Baldwin of ethnic cleansing in annexed Belgium and the Rhineland, forcing ethnic Germans eastward en masse to resettle the region with French from areas such as the Vendee. Meanwhile, both factions have engaged in deadly campaigns of bombing, leaving countless innocent civilians dead in cities such as Paris, Brest, London, and Guernica.
-With the support of the liberal king, an additional layer of liberty has been granted to the constituent kingdoms of Otto von Habsburg’s realm, effectively making all separate states in all respects but a shared monarch while largely relegating Otto’s position to that of a symbolic head of state.
