Bill > S580

This bill proposes changes to the duration of unemployment benefits in North Carolina based on the average modified metropolitan statistical area (MSA) unemployment rates, rather than the statewide unemployment rate. It also establishes a new provision where the state will contribute 10% of the quarterly surtax collections to the Unemployment Insurance Fund when the surtax applies. The bill aims to provide more generous unemployment benefits in areas with higher unemployment rates and to supplement the Unemployment Insurance Fund through state contributions.
