01:33 PM -- HB 14-1075

Representative Williams, chair, called the meeting to order. A quorum was present. Representative Melton, sponsor, presented House Bill 14-1075, concerning a reduction in the deferral of unemployment insurance benefits for individuals separated from employment due to the unsuitability of the work after accepting work while unemployed. The current deferral penalty is 10 weeks. The bill reduces the deferral period in these situations to the period of time the claimant worked prior to the separation. Representative Melton described the incident which precipitated the bill, and requested that the committee move to postpone the bill indefinitely.
