..."We need to keep the UC Trust Fund solvent and available for those who need and deserve benefits,'' Hearthway said. "In addition to keeping something that you are not entitled to, having an outstanding obligation to the UC trust fund can cause problems with credit, future UC claims, and potentially the law, if not rectified. "This opportunity has never been presented in our state, or anywhere in the United States," she said.
