Georgia will reject expanded unemployment benefits associated with the American Rescue Plan, Republican Gov. Brian Kemp announced Thursday.

“We’re not going to be participating in the federal subsidy any longer. That’s going to be a date in mid-to-late June. We’re working with the labor commissioner, and we’ll have more information on that soon,” Kemp told Fox News. “Every small business owner, and the workers that are currently working, they need more people. It’s hurting our productivity.”
