Thousands of Michiganders falsely accused of fraud by the state Unemployment Insurance Agency may get compensated in the near future. House Democratic Leader Sam Singh.

“There will be a series of bills that will be introduced in the coming weeks. One that would make sure that any individual who was wrongly accused not only gets their payment back but would actually be given interest on top of that since the government has taken their money during that period of time,” he says.

Singh says they also want to make sure any legal or bankruptcy costs are reimbursed to those wrongly accused. He's hoping for Republican support on the bills.
