Louisville caravan calls on Mitch McConnell to extend $600 supplement to jobless benefits

LOUISVILLE, Ky. – As negotiations on another coronavirus relief package continued in Washington, D.C., Kentucky workers drove through Louisville on Thursday to call on congressional leaders, namely Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, to extend the $600 supplement to unemployment benefits that expired July 31.

About two dozen workers blared their horns as they circled the downtown federal courthouse, home to McConnell's office, before driving past the Republican senator's Louisville home.

Signs reading "Save the $600" and "Mitch better have my money" were taped to many of the cars' windows.

Katie Adams, of Bowling Green, said she is unemployed, having lost her job as a sales account manager.
