Summary
H.R. 7013, the Jump-Start the American Economy Act, was introduced in the House of Representatives on May 26, 2020, by Mr. Crenshaw and referred to the Committee on Ways and Means. It amends the CARES Act so that an agreement may provide for State agency weekly payments of reemployment support benefits in the amount of $600 to an individual who was eligible for Federal Pandemic Unemployment Compensation and is no longer eligible as a result of obtaining reemployment. Payments end with the earlier of the 6th week following the first week of ineligibility or the last week of the agreement. An individual is ineligible if weekly wages upon reemployment exceed the unemployment assistance received for the previous week.
