2 | Version 1 | Bilirakis (FL) | Republican | Would amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to prevent payment of unemployment compensation to individuals discharged for drug or alcohol use.

1 | Version 1 | Camp (MI) | Republican | MANAGERS AMENDMENT - The Amendment in the Nature of a Substitute includes technical changes to section 203 of the legislation, which were brought to the Committee's attention after markup and are designed to ensure that individuals currently eligible for Extended Benefits remain eligible and that States are not able to claim additional matching payments since the bill already provides full Federal funding for those benefits. | Submitted |
15 | Version 1 | Cleaver (MO), Conyers (MI), Fudge (OH) | Democrat | Would delay enactment of the law until the economy is in a period of full employment, including when the ratio of unemployed person per job opening is two to one and the national unemployment rate is below 6%. | Submitted |

4 | Version 1 | Lee, Barbara (CA) | Democrat | Substitute Would strike the underlying legislation and insert HR 589 in its place, thereby extending unemployment benefits by an additional 14 weeks. | Submitted |

12 | Version 1 | Ryan, Paul (WI) | Republican | Would provide for a technical correction to the emergency designation included in HR 1745 to include the budget resolution for FY11 as provided for in H. Res. 5 as an emergency designation. This would add to the emergency designation, a designation that it is an emergency for purposes of the Budget Act. | Submitted |
