    Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the

SECTION 1. TEMPORARY SPECIAL RULES.

    Effective with respect to any weeks that begin during the period 
beginning on August 1, 2010, and ending on September 30, 2011, a State 
may by law provide that section 203 of the Federal-State Extended 
Unemployment Compensation Act of 1970 (26 U.S.C. 3304 note) be applied 
as if--
            (1) subsection (b)(1)(B) of such section had been amended 
        by substituting ``first'' for ``fourteenth''; and
            (2) subsection (f) of such section had been amended--
                    (A) by substituting ``6 percent'' for ``6.5 
                percent''; and
                    (B) by repealing clause (ii) of paragraph (1)(A) 
                thereof.

    The Secretary of Labor may not, in the case of any State that 
amends its State law in conformance with section 1, withhold 
certification of such State under section 3304 of the Internal Revenue 
Code of 1986 if, with respect to the period of time to which such 
certification relates, the Secretary of Labor finds that the State law 
of such State would (disregarding any provisions of such State law as 
in effect or applied in conformance with section 1) otherwise satisfy 
the requirements for certification.

SEC. 3. DEFINITIONS.

    For purposes of this Act, the terms ``State'', ``State law'', and
