  SA 2766. Mr. REID (for Mr. Durbin (for himself, Mr. Wellstone, Mr. 
Dayton, Ms. Landrieu, and Mrs. Lincoln)) proposed an amendment to 
amendment SA 2698 submitted by Mr. Daschle and intended to be proposed 
to the bill (H.R. 622) to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to 
expand the adoption credit, and for other purposes; as follows:

       Strike title IV and insert the following:

           TITLE IV--TEMPORARY ENHANCED UNEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS

     SEC. 401. SHORT TITLE.

       This title may be cited as the ``Temporary Unemployment 
     Compensation Act of 2002''.

     SEC. 402. FEDERAL-STATE AGREEMENTS.

       (a) In General.--Any State which desires to do so may enter 
     into and participate in an agreement under this title with 
     the Secretary of Labor (in this title referred to as the 
     ``Secretary''). Any State which is a party to an agreement 
     under this title may, upon providing 31 days' written notice 
     to the Secretary, terminate such agreement.
       (b) Provisions of Agreement.--
       (1) In general.--Any agreement under subsection (a) shall 
     provide that the State agency of the State will make--
       (A) payments of temporary enhanced unemployment 
     compensation to individuals; and
       (B) payments of temporary supplemental unemployment 
     compensation to individuals who--
       (i) have--

       (I) exhausted all rights to regular compensation under the 
     State law (or, as the case may be, all rights to temporary 
     enhanced unemployment compensation); or
       (II) received 26 weeks of regular compensation under the 
     State law (or, as the case may be, 26 weeks of temporary 
     enhanced unemployment compensation);

       (ii) do not have any rights to regular compensation under 
     the State law of any other State (or to temporary enhanced 
     unemployment compensation); and
       (iii) are not receiving compensation under the unemployment 
     compensation law of any other country.
       (2) Special rules regarding temporary enhanced unemployment 
     compensation.--
       (A) In general.--Subject to subparagraphs (B) and (C), 
     eligibility for, and the amount of, temporary enhanced 
     unemployment compensation shall be determined in the same 
     manner as eligibility for, and the amount of, regular 
     compensation is determined under the State law.
       (B) Eligibility for teuc.--In the case of an individual who 
     is not eligible for regular compensation under the State law 
     because--
       (i) of the use of a definition of base period that does not 
     count wages earned in the most recently completed calendar 
     quarter, then eligibility for temporary enhanced unemployment 
     compensation under subparagraph (A) shall be determined by 
     applying a base period ending at the close of the calendar 
     quarter most recently completed before the date of the 
     individual's application for benefits, except that this 
     clause shall not apply unless wage data for that quarter has 
     been reported to the State or supplied to the State agency on 
     behalf of the individual; or
       (ii) such individual does not meet requirements relating to 
     availability for work, active search for work, or refusal to 
     accept work, because such individual is seeking, or is 
     available for, only part-time (and not full-time) work, then 
     eligibility for temporary enhanced unemployment compensation 
     under subparagraph (A) shall be determined without regard to 
     the fact that such individual is seeking, or is available 
     for, only part-time (and not full-time) work, except that 
     this clause shall not apply unless--

       (I) the individual's employment on which eligibility for 
     the temporary enhanced unemployment compensation is based was 
     part-time employment; or
       (II) the individual can show good cause for seeking, or 
     being available for, only part-time (and not full-time) work.

       (C) Increased benefits.--
       (i) Individuals eligible for regular compensation.--In the 
     case of an individual who is eligible for regular 
     compensation (including dependents' allowances) under the 
     State law without regard to this paragraph, the amount of 
     temporary enhanced unemployment compensation payable to such 
     individual for any week shall be an amount equal to the 
     greater of--

       (I) 15 percent of the amount of such regular compensation 
     payable to such individual for the week; or
       (II) $25.

       (ii) Individuals not eligible for regular compensation but 
     eligible for teuc by reason of subparagraph (b).--In the case 
     of an individual who is eligible for temporary enhanced 
     unemployment compensation under this paragraph by reason of 
     either clause (i) or (ii) of subparagraph (B), the amount of 
     temporary enhanced unemployment compensation payable to such 
     individual for any week shall be equal to the amount of 
     compensation payable to such individual (as determined under 
     subparagraph (A)) for the week, plus an amount equal to the 
     greater of--

       (I) 15 percent of the amount so determined; or
       (II) $25.

       (iii) Rounding.--For purposes of determining the amount 
     under clause (i)(I) or (ii)(I), such amount shall be rounded 
     to the dollar amount specified under the State law.
       (c) Nonreduction Rule.--Under an agreement entered into 
     under this title, subsection (b)(2)(C) shall not apply (or 
     shall cease to apply) with respect to a State upon a 
     determination by the Secretary that the method governing the 
     computation of regular compensation under the State law of 
     that State has been modified in a way such that the average 
     weekly amount of regular compensation which will be payable 
     during the period of the agreement (determined disregarding 
     any temporary enhanced unemployment compensation) will be 
     less than the average weekly amount of regular compensation 
     which would otherwise have been payable during such period 
     under the State law, as in effect on September 11, 2001.
       (d) Coordination Rules.--
       (1) Regular compensation payable under a federal law.--
     Rules similar to the rules under subsection (b)(2) shall 
     apply in determining the amount of benefits payable under any 
     Federal law to the extent that those benefits are determined 
     by reference to regular compensation payable under the State 
     law of the State involved.
       (2) Temporary supplemental unemployment compensation to 
     serve as second-tier benefits.--Notwithstanding any other 
     provision of law, neither regular compensation,

[[Page S291]]

     temporary enhanced unemployment compensation, extended 
     compensation, nor additional compensation under any Federal 
     or State law shall be payable to any individual for any week 
     for which temporary supplemental unemployment compensation is 
     payable to such individual.
       (3) Treatment of other unemployment compensation.--After 
     the date on which a State enters into an agreement under this 
     title, any regular compensation (or, as the case may be, 
     temporary enhanced unemployment compensation) in excess of 26 
     weeks, any extended compensation, and any additional 
     compensation under any Federal or State law shall be payable 
     to an individual in accordance with the State law after such 
     individual has exhausted any rights to temporary supplemental 
     unemployment compensation under the agreement.
       (e) Exhaustion of Benefits.--For purposes of subsection 
     (b)(1)(B)(i)(I), an individual shall be considered to have 
     exhausted such individual's rights to regular compensation 
     (or, as the case may be, rights to temporary enhanced 
     unemployment compensation) under a State law (or agreement 
     under this title) when--
       (1) no payments of regular compensation (or, as the case 
     may be, rights to temporary enhanced unemployment 
     compensation) can be made under such law (or such agreement) 
     because the individual has received all such compensation 
     available to the individual based on employment or wages 
     during the individual's base period; or
       (2) the individual's rights to such compensation have been 
     terminated by reason of the expiration of the benefit year 
     with respect to which such rights existed.
       (f) Weekly Benefit Amount, Terms and Conditions, Etc. 
     Relating to Temporary Supplemental Unemployment 
     Compensation.--For purposes of any agreement under this 
     title--
       (1) the amount of temporary supplemental unemployment 
     compensation which shall be payable to an individual for any 
     week of total unemployment shall be equal to--
       (A) the amount of regular compensation (including 
     dependents' allowances) payable to such individual under the 
     State law for a week for total unemployment during such 
     individual's benefit year; plus
       (B) the amount of any temporary enhanced unemployment 
     compensation payable to such individual for a week for total 
     unemployment during such individual's benefit year;
       (2) the terms and conditions of the State law which apply 
     to claims for regular compensation and to the payment thereof 
     shall apply to claims for temporary supplemental unemployment 
     compensation and the payment thereof, except where 
     inconsistent with the provisions of this title or with the 
     regulations or operating instructions of the Secretary 
     promulgated to carry out this title; and
       (3) the maximum amount of temporary supplemental 
     unemployment compensation payable to any individual for whom 
     a temporary supplemental unemployment compensation account is 
     established under section 403 shall not exceed the amount 
     established in such account for such individual.

     SEC. 403. TEMPORARY SUPPLEMENTAL UNEMPLOYMENT COMPENSATION 
                   ACCOUNT.

       (a) In General.--Any agreement under this title shall 
     provide that the State will establish, for each eligible 
     individual who files an application for temporary 
     supplemental unemployment compensation, a temporary 
     supplemental unemployment compensation account.
       (b) Amount in Account.--
       (1) In general.--The amount established in an account under 
     subsection (a) shall be equal to the greater of--
       (A) 50 percent of--
       (i) the total amount of regular compensation (including 
     dependents' allowances) payable to the individual during the 
     individual's benefit year under such law; plus
       (ii) the amount of any temporary enhanced unemployment 
     compensation payable to the individual during the 
     individual's benefit year under the agreement; or
       (B) 13 times the individual's weekly benefit amount.
       (2) Weekly benefit amount.--For purposes of paragraph 
     (1)(B), an individual's weekly benefit amount for any week is 
     an amount equal to--
       (A) the amount of regular compensation (including 
     dependents' allowances) under the State law payable to the 
     individual for such week for total unemployment; plus
       (B) the amount of any temporary enhanced unemployment 
     compensation under the agreement payable to the individual 
     for such week for total unemployment.

     has entered into an agreement under this title an amount 
     equal to--
       (1) 100 percent of any temporary enhanced unemployment 
     compensation made payable to individuals by such State;
       (2) 100 percent of any regular compensation which would 
     have been temporary enhanced unemployment compensation under 
     this title but for the fact that its State law contains 
     provisions comparable to the provisions in clauses (i) and 
     (ii) of section 402(b)(2)(B); and
       (3) 100 percent of the temporary supplemental unemployment 
     compensation paid to individuals by the State pursuant to 
     such agreement.
       (b) Determination of Amount.--Sums under subsection (a) 
     payable to any State by reason of such State having an 
     agreement under this title shall be payable, either in 
     advance or by way of reimbursement (as determined by the 
     Secretary), in such amounts as the Secretary estimates the 
     State will be entitled to receive under this title for each 
     calendar month, reduced or increased, as the case may be, by 
     any amount by which the Secretary finds that the Secretary's 
     estimates for any prior calendar month were greater or less 
     than the amounts which should have been paid to the State. 
     Such estimates may be made on the basis of such statistical, 
     sampling, or other method as may be agreed upon by the 
     Secretary and the State agency of the State involved.

     unemployment compensation under this title to which such 
     individual was not entitled, such individual--
       (1) shall be ineligible for any further benefits under this 
     title in accordance with the provisions of the applicable 
     State unemployment compensation law relating to fraud in 
     connection with a claim for unemployment compensation; and
       (2) shall be subject to prosecution under section 1001 of 
     title 18, United States Code.
       (b) Repayment.--In the case of individuals who have 
     received any temporary enhanced unemployment compensation or 
     temporary supplemental unemployment compensation under this 
     title to which such individuals were not entitled, the State 
     shall require such individuals to repay those benefits to the 
     State agency, except that the State agency may waive such 
     repayment if it determines that--
       (1) the payment of such benefits was without fault on the 
     part of any such individual; and

     such individuals received the payment of the temporary 
     enhanced unemployment compensation or the temporary 
     supplemental unemployment compensation to which such 
     individuals were not entitled, except that no single 
     deduction may exceed 50 percent of the weekly benefit amount 
     from which such deduction is made.

[[Page S292]]

       (2) Opportunity for hearing.--No repayment shall be 
     required, and no deduction shall be made, until a 
     determination has been made, notice thereof and an 
     opportunity for a fair hearing has been given to the 
     individual, and the determination has become final.
       (d) Review.--Any determination by a State agency under this

                                  ____

  SA 2767. Mrs. LINCOLN (for herself, Mr. Graham, Mr. Nelson of 
Florida, Mr. Miller, Mr. Corzine, Mr. Dayton, Mr. Kerry, Mrs. Murray, 
Mr. Torricelli, Mrs. Clinton, and Mr. Schumer) proposed an amendment to 
amendment SA 2698 submitted by Mr. Daschle and intended to be proposed 
to the bill (H.R. 622) to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to 
expand the adoption credit, and for other purposes; as follows:

       At the appropriate place, insert the following:

     SEC. ____. DELAY IN MEDICAID UPL CHANGES FOR NON-STATE 
                   GOVERNMENT-OWNED OR OPERATED HOSPITALS.

       (a) Congressional Findings.--Congress finds the following:
       (1) The Secretary of Health and Human Services, in 
     regulations promulgated on January 12, 2001, provided for an 
     exception to the upper limits on payment under State medicaid 
     plans so to permit payment to city and county public 
     hospitals at a rate up to 150 percent of the medicare payment 
     rate.
       (2) The Secretary justified this exception because these 
     hospitals--
       (A) provide access to a wide range of needed care not often 
     otherwise available in underserved areas;
       (B) deliver a significant proportion of uncompensated care; 
     and
       (C) are critically dependent on public financing sources, 
     such as the medicaid program.
       (3) There has been no evidence presented to Congress that

     individual's rights to regular compensation under a State law

     or wages during such individual's base period; or

     terminated by reason of the expiration of the benefit year

     compensation to the State agency, except that the State 
     agency may waive such repayment if it determines that--
