2022 Bill(s)
* SB 665 Sponsor:Bernskoetter, Mike Status: S Perfection Description: Shorten the number of weeks in which a person can collect unemployment compensation if the state's unemployment rate drops below nine percent. Make the number of weeks of eligibility a sliding scale based on the unemployment rate to as low as eight weeks. The governor vetoed a similar bill, HB 150 in 2015. The legislature overrode the veto, but the override was struck down by the state Supreme Court based on the Senate delaying a vote on the override until the veto session.

Note: The descriptions of bills, amendments and roll-call votes are written by MDN journalists. MDN's database may not include committee assignments of bills made on the last day of the session since it is too late for the committee to act on the bill and, thus, the delayed assignment has no practical effect.
