Radio Script for Maui TV News on KAOI Radio - July 3, 2008

FROM THE VISIONARY RADIO NEWS CENTER I’M JEFF KING WITH MAUI TV NEWS.

TODAY GOVERNOR LINDA LINGLE AUITHORIZED AN ADDITIONAL 13 WEEKS OF BENEFITS FOR HAWAII RESIDENTS WHO LOST THEIR JOBS THROUGH NO FAULT OF THEIR OWN. THE NEWS IS PARTICULARLY WELCOME FOR FORMER MOLOKAI RANCH WORKERS, AS WELL AS THOSE FORMERLY EMPLOYED BY ALOHA AND ATA AIRLINES IN HAWAII. THE 13 WEEKS IS ADDED ON TO THE EXISTING 26 WEEKS OF UNEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS AVAILABLE TO LAID OFF WORKERS. IF YOU'RE AFFECTED, YOU SHOULD RECEIVE A NOTICE WITHIN THE NEXT TWO WEEKS. iF YOU DON'T RECEIVE THE NOTICE, CALL THE UNEMPLOYMENT OFFICE.

THOUSANDS OF HAWAII RESIDENTS STILL HAVE NOT FILED FOR AN ECONOMIC STIMULUS CHECK FROM THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. RECORDS SHOW THAT MORE THAN 24-THOUSAND RESIDENTS COLLECTING SOCIAL SECURITY OR VETERAN’S HAVE NEGLECTED TO FILE FOR THE REFUND. THE DEADLINE TO FILE IS OCTOBER 15TH.

ISLAND WEATHER…..MOSTLY CLEAR TONIGHT WITH A LOW IN THE UPPER 60S. BEAUTIFUL TOMORROW WITH HIGHS IN THE UPPER 80S.
