Bill overview
This bill, the Emergency Portable Benefits for Independent Workers Act, aims to establish a program providing grants to states to develop and implement portable benefits for independent workers, domestic workers, and other non-traditional employees. It seeks to address the lack of benefits typically offered to these workers and builds on the temporary Pandemic Unemployment Assistance program. The bill directs the Secretary of Labor to award funds to states for technology upgrades and experimentation with benefit models like paid leave and retirement savings options.
