Protecting Taxpayers and Victims of Unemployment Fraud Act

May. 11, 2023 | H.R. 1163

Rather than targeting intentional fraud, as the Department of Labor Office of Inspector General recommended, this bill would penalize unemployment insurance (UI) recipients for inadvertent errors in program administration. It would suspend the requirement that merit-based public employees administer the UI program for seven years, undermining program stability and expertise.
