The bill introduced by Senator Schaffer aims to establish legislative oversight over executive actions related to voluntary federal unemployment compensation programs by enacting section 4141.433 of the Revised Code. This new section allows the General Assembly to disapprove any agreements or orders made by the governor or the director of job and family services that implement voluntary programs under federal law, which may affect the weekly benefit amounts, duration of benefits, or other forms of unemployment compensation.

Specifically, if the governor or the director enters into such agreements or issues orders, the General Assembly can adopt a concurrent resolution to disapprove them, either in whole or in part. Upon the adoption of this resolution, the governor or director is required to rescind the agreement or order as soon as practicable, thereby ensuring that legislative oversight is maintained over significant changes to unemployment compensation programs.
