Huawei Lays Off More Than 600 American Workers

Description

China’s Huawei Technologies Co Ltd is slashing more than 600 jobs at its research arm in the United States. According to Reuters, Futurewei Technologies employed 850 workers in the United States. The layoffs come after the company was placed on a trade blacklist by the U.S. government. In May, the U.S. Commerce Department placed the firm on its “entity list” of organizations that pose security risks. The blacklist also restricts Huawei from purchasing products from U.S. technology companies.

From Florida Resort, Trump Holds Economic Fate Of 14 Million American Workers In His Hand

President Donald Trump faces a ticking clock with respect to the current proposed COVID-19 relief package. Trump has suggested he may reject the $900 billion package that Congress approved earlier this week unless lawmakers include $2,000 stimulus payments. Business Insider reports Trump could cost jobless workers a week of $300 federal unemployment benefits if he fails to sign the bill by midnight Saturday. Business Insider reports nearly 14 million Americans may lose all their unemployment aid this weekend if the bill doesn't pass. Labor experts say a two-to-three week gap in unemployment benefits is inevitable, as states need to recalibrate their computer systems to send the payments.

The GOP Is Fuming At Trump's 'Tantrum' Disguised As Concern For Workers

When President Donald Trump vetoed the $900 billion stimulus bill Tuesday night, he claimed sending $600 checks to working Americans wasn't enough. But according to Business Insider, some Republicans aren't buying it. One anonymous GOP official said Trump was throwing a 'tantrum' in order to punish GOP lawmakers who didn't back his bid to hold onto the presidency. As Trump left to spend the Christmas holidays in his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida on Wednesday, the White House was fielding furious calls from Republicans. They wanted to know why they were told that Trump supported the bill and asked them to vote for it, only to be abandoned at the last minute.
