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 stipulates that if the governor or the director of job and family services enters into any agreement or issues a special or standing order to implement a voluntary program that increases unemployment benefits or related assistance, the General Assembly has the authority to disapprove of that action through a concurrent resolution.

Upon the adoption of such a resolution, the bill mandates that the governor or the director must rescind the agreement or order as soon as practicable. This legislative oversight mechanism is designed to ensure that the General Assembly retains control over significant changes to unemployment compensation programs, thereby enhancing accountability in the administration of these benefits.
