RALEIGH, N.C. (WNCN) — Federal unemployment will continue for North Carolinians after Gov. Roy Cooper (D) vetoed a bill that would end the weekly $300 benefits.
Anthony DeMarco is the co-owner of DeMo’s Pizzeria and Deli in Raleigh. He said there have been job openings for months, particularly for delivery drivers.
“I’ve never seen it where you put ads out and you get literally zero responses, but that’s what we’ve got and it’s unfortunate, but we’re doing the best we can to make it work at this point,” DeMarco said.
