Congress has been unable to agree on a new stimulus package, and now, a key feature of the last package--the 0 enhanced unemployment benefit--has lapsed.“We definitely anticipate significant increases in the number of families and individuals that will begin to rely on emergency food programs more heavily as a result of the loss of this 0 additional benefit,” said Zanita Tisdale, who works with the Food Bank for New York City.The Food Bank for New York City has provided more than 30 million meals from March to April, just in New York. With many on unemployment losing almost two-thirds of their income now, there will be an even greater need in the city and beyond.“Our network of over 1,000 emergency food providers across 90 percent of the zip codes here in the city are really bracing themselves and making sure they are already bringing in enough resources,” Tisdale added.A study done by Feeding America shows 1 in 6 Americans could now struggle with hunger as a result of the financial hardships caused by the pandemic. That is 54 million Americans, 17 million more people since the start of the pandemic.“About 30 to 40 percent of estimated clients that are coming to food banks have never called a food bank before for help,” said Zuani Villarreal with Feeding America.“The deeper we get into this economic crisis and also taking into consideration that Congress is essentially late in passing new legislation, the more significant our economic challenges are going to be as a nation,” said Mark Hamrick, a senior economic analyst with Bankrate.com.Hamrick warns if Congress doesn’t act fast to end the lapse of enhanced benefits, not only will more people go hungry, but our economy will take a more troubling hit.“The deeper we get into this lack of action on the part of elected officials, the more it exacerbates the level of uncertainty that we have,’ said Hamrick. “I do believe, and I hope I am not overly optimistic, that both sides will come together.”Currently, the House’s idea for a second package, the HEROES Act, was passed in May. However, it has been mostly ignored by the Senate. It’s a trillion plan that proposed extending the 0 benefit in full. Within the past week, Senate Republicans have revealed their own plan, the HEALS Act. It’s a trillion plan that reduces the former 0 a week enhanced benefit to 0.Since any plan has to pass in both the Senate and House, it’s unclear when an actual stimulus plan will be seen. Until then, food banks around the country are bracing for many more Americans to need their help.“Of course, we want our elected officials to do the right thing, but we are going to be here ready and waiting with no barriers to services, no questions asked,” said Tisdale. “This is a judgment-free zone. We understand people just need some support.” 2832

Cyberbullying among kids related to the election is a growing problem right now. And with how divisive things are, there are concerns this won't be going away after the polls close next week.“This is a very, very polarizing and almost even more in front of kids’ faces, election than any other time in history,” said Titania Jordan with Bark Technologies.Bark Technologies currently monitors more than 5 million kids online at home. Its monitoring shows from mid-August to the end of September, there was a 25% increase in bullying overall from the beginning of July. And there was a 220% increase in severe bullying.You'd expect to see this with the start of the school year, but the numbers show this is about a 50% increase from what Bark typically sees over this period.They say the feedback they've received from parents supports the increase with a direct tie-in to election-related cyberbullying.“It’s not something that she gets to judge over or bully over or make people feel bad about,” said Kathryn Noble, whose daughter was impacted by cyberbullying. “That's not acceptable at any age but especially at 13.”Noble says her 13-year-old daughter recently blocked one of her friends on social media over them supporting a different candidate than her.Bark found around 45% of what kids are sharing is memes about the two candidates. They've found this month that messages including the word “Trump” are being flagged more frequently for depression, hate speech and weapons.Messages including the word "Biden" are being flagged more frequently for cyberbullying, because they include disparaging or belittling language.“They're being bullied even because of maybe something their parents have said or something their family says,” said Matt McKee at Bark Technologies. “Hey, this is where we stand right now and because of that, kids are being brought into those situations.”As far as addressing this cyberbullying, the tech experts we talked with say asking your kids to teach you about a certain app they are using will give you more insight into what's happening earlier.Things to watch for include changes in sleep patterns or behavior. They also say now is really the time to encourage empathy with your kids. 2229

CLEVELAND, Ohio — People taking care of elderly loved ones who receive Social Security benefits may not know to what they are entitled."This money belongs to us...the social security recipient,” said Don Wright, who is nothing if not passionate about his mission now to help others.“It’s our money!” he said.Reporters with E.W. Scripps television station WEWS in Cleveland, asked Wright: “Do you think many people know about this?”“No. No. That is sad,” he replied.Wright is from Akron, Ohio. He was married to a woman for 16 years. They divorced and later she passed away.In 2009, Wright said he filed for his Social Security benefits, talking with a staff member at the Akron office."He said this famous statement. ‘Well, who do you want to collect your benefits from?’” Wright said. The man offered him either his own benefits or his ex-wife's benefits."What he should have said was 'Well, you know you're entitled to collect your survivor widower's benefits first,’" Wright said.It wasn't until 2016 when some friends told Wright to look into the survivor benefits."Social security, I found out in my investigation, does not willfully just hand out a bunch of information for you to know," Wright said.He told us from that first meeting with the Akron office in 2009 until 2016, he was entitled to 7 to 8 years of the survivor benefits and more. However, after fighting for that money, he got a message from an attorney's office on his answering machine saying he might get six months to a year of benefits."The average person would think Social Security said, 'You're done! There's no way in the world you can get anything else.’ Well, that's not true,” Wright said.Reporters at WEWS found in the social security Code of Federal Regulations, there's an admission that agents "may have given you misinformation about your eligibility for such benefits ... Which caused you not to file an application at that time." It even gives examples that are similar to Wright’s claims."You don't always get that correct answer right off (the bat),” said Marcia Margolius, who is an attorney and a social security law expert. She works in Cleveland."We have to encourage people continuously to persevere, to follow up on their rights,” Margolius said.Marcia said she's experienced plenty of social security roadblocks."It's a weeding out sort-of a policy where social security may take the attitude of, if you're serious and if your claim is legitimate, you're going to keep going," she said."Is it a strategy by social security?” a WEWS reporter asked.“I wouldn't go that far…but I have seen it a lot,” Margolius said.Wright said another hurdle was when social security gave him a list of lawyers to help him through the process. He wrote letters to those attorneys only to have many returned to sender. We saw the envelopes marked “no such number,” “address vacant” and “not deliverable.”"And I kept getting all these dead ends and nobody to help me,” Wright said.WEWS investigative reporters contacted the Social Security Administration. A representative said if Wright signed a consent form, then the rep could talk to us about his case. Wright did that. However, later the rep "respectfully declined" an interview.Here’s the full statement sent to WEWS reporters: 3283
