Section 303 of the Social Security Act ( 42 U.S.C. 503 ) is amended by adding at the end the following: For purposes of subsection (a), the State law of a State must provide for a reemployment bonus program, to be approved by the Secretary of Labor, under which a reemployment bonus, in an amount specified under paragraph (2), shall be paid, immediately following the end of the 16-week period described in subparagraph (B), to any individual described in paragraph
(3)who— becomes employed by an employer other than the individual’s most recent employer not later than 12 weeks after the date of the individual’s initial claim for unemployment compensation; and remains employed by such employer for a period of at least 16 consecutive weeks. The amount of a reemployment bonus paid to an individual under paragraph
(1)shall be an amount equal to 1/2 of the difference between the total amount of regular compensation that would be payable to the individual during the benefit year under the State law if the individual were not employed in any week of such benefit year and the total amount of such regular compensation paid to the individual during the benefit year prior the week in which the individual becomes employed as described in paragraph (1)(A). An individual described in this paragraph is an individual who— is eligible for unemployment compensation for the week before the week in which the individual becomes employed as described in paragraph (1)(A); and has been identified under subsection
(j)as an individual likely to exhaust regular compensation. In this subsection, the terms regular compensation and benefit year have the meanings given such terms in section 205 of the Federal-State Extended Unemployment Compensation Act of 1970 ( 26 U.S.C. 3304 note). . The amendment made by subsection
(a)shall, with respect to a State, apply to certifications for payment under section 302(a) of the Social Security Act in years beginning after the end of the 26-week period beginning on the first day of the first regularly scheduled session of the State legislature beginning on or after the date of the enactment of this Act.
