Sat. 11 am 2 pm COLUMBUS A Rep ublican prop osal would cut the numb er of weeks unemployed could receive benefits in half making it one of the shortest periods in the nation. The bill, introduced Monday, would reduce the number of weeks Ohioans could receive unemployment compensation from 26 weeks to be- tween 12 to 20 weeks, depending on the unemployment rate.

When nemployment is below 5 .5 percent, as it is now, hioans would receive 12 eeks of assistance. Rep. Barbara Sears, R- Monclova Township, said the change is necessary to ensure the pot of money used to pay for unemployment compensation dangerously depleted again. Ohio was one of 34 states that borrowed mon- ey from the federal government to pay unemployment when the last recession hit. hio bor- owed more than $2 bill ion and still owes $774.8 illion, which is expected to be paid off by the end of 2017.

Money goes into the pot from taxes imposed on employers for each employee. Currently, a portion of first $9,000 is taxed. proposal would raise that to the first $11,000 until re- serves were restored. want to get to a point that absent another big recession, we are not borrowing more from the federal Sears said. But axing the number weeks Ohioans can re- eive unemployment oney to 12 weeks would ake period the shortest in the nation, matched by just two other states.

Zach Schiller with liberal-leaning think tank Policy Matters Ohio said the bill would dramatical- reduce benefits and reate new hurdles to get hem in the first place. ome of those hurdles include making those receiving unemployment pay into Social Security arequirement lawmakers barred in 2007. Another change would require workers to collect wages for three quarters of the year to qualify for assistance.

Workers laid off because they failed a drug test, violated the employee handbook or show up to work for three days without calling also would be barred from unemployment money. Certainly, a point contention for a lot of Sears said of red ucing the number of eligible weeks for unemployment. But unemployment is low, and individuals without jobs have opportunities to find them. think we can feel comfortable with she said.
