No, you should be fine. The law says you can. Although who knows if the law will mean anything in the next 4 years.
No. You are just being honest about the jeopardy you are in. Good luck 🍀🤞
I get it. Always, always, always consult with your immigration lawyer. Even the folks over at USCIS reddit might have better insight than fishbowl. Best of luck to ya.
You are legally entitled to the same unemployment as a citizen.
You are also correct to worry about what the current federal govt may do.
Btw, for anyone that hasn’t been following the news, this is what they’re doing to green card holders:

It’s very scary
Never heard of anyone being deported on green card while unemployed. And it won’t change in the next 4 years. You will be fine.
Just don’t do anything you said you wouldn’t do when you applied for Green Card - aka don’t break the law.
PS: I’m a former Green Card holder.
Please post how it goes. I am a green card holder as well.
I wouldn’t worry about being in unemployment. Unfortunately I would worry about crossing the border.

You're ok. The card guarantees your residence for ten years so long as you don't commit a felony. If the government comes for GC holders, benefit status won't matter. Signed, a fellow green card holder.
Have you read the news lately?
Absolutely apply and get every single cent owed to you. You’ve paid in to the system.
