Bill Summary
To extend the trade adjustment assistance program, and for other purposes.
AI Summary
This bill, titled the Trade Adjustment Assistance Act of 2014, extends and modifies the Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) program, which provides benefits and retraining to workers and assistance to firms and communities negatively impacted by foreign trade. Key provisions include extending the program's termination date from 2013 to 2020, repealing a provision called "SNAPBACK" that would have automatically ended the program, and clarifying that the TAA provisions in effect on December 31, 2013, will apply to petitions filed on or after the bill's enactment. The bill also expands eligibility to include workers in public agencies, adjusts the duration and amount of certain trade readjustment allowances (benefits paid to eligible workers), increases job search and relocation allowances, and modifies reemployment TAA program funding. Furthermore, it extends and modifies the Health Coverage Tax Credit, increasing the credit percentage and coordinating it with the Affordable Care Act's premium tax credit.
