One assumes, though it's expected the child tax credit will be introduced in a permanent bill eventually, so I think there's a chance we'll see a more permanent UI benefit too. At least I hope.

Pfft. Biden rolled back immigration restrictions in a period of record unemployment, and you expect improvement in unemployment benefits? Labour must be squeezed, and the child tax credit does that, too. Can't have a reduction in births, that would mean less workers fighting for a job twenty years down the line.
