Summary

Existing federal law, the Federal Unemployment Tax Act, levies a payroll tax on employers and provides a credit against this tax for contributions made to certified state unemployment compensation programs. Existing law requires employers to contribute to the Unemployment Fund for the purpose of funding unemployment benefits for qualified individuals. Existing law provides that the provisions requiring employer contributions to the Unemployment Fund will become inoperative, and the provisions for payment of unemployment benefits will cease, if the federal law establishing the state credit against the federal payroll tax is repealed or otherwise affected in such a way that all or any part of an employer's contributions to the Unemployment Fund are no longer credited against the federal tax. This bill would make technical, nonsubstantive changes to these provisions.
