  Press Release: Rep. Loudermilk Introduces ‘Return to Work Act’
  
  Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-GA) issued the following statement after he introduced the Return to Work Act (H.R. 3254), which would end the federal unemployment subsidy of $300 per week that is being paid in addition to state unemployment benefits.
