  • Twenty-five states are ending federal unemployment benefits (including an extra $300 a week) ahead of their official expiration on Sept. 6. Their governors are trying to encourage recipients to look for jobs.
  • A dozen already did so over the past two weeks.
  • Yet job searches are muted in those states, according to an analysis from website Indeed.
