SUMMARY AS OF:
7/26/2002--Conference report filed in
House. (There are 2 other
summaries)
Trade Act of 2002 - Division A: Trade Adjustment Assistance - Trade
Adjustment Assistance Reform Act of 2002 - Title I: Trade Adjustment
Assistance Program - Subtitle A: Trade Adjustment Assistance for
Workers - (Sec. 111) Amends the Trade Act of 1974 to reauthorize the trade
adjustment assistance (TAA) program through FY 2007 for workers and firms
adversely affected by import competition. (All workers referred to in this
summary are adversely affected workers, unless otherwise indicated.)
Reauthorizes the TAA program for farmers adversely affected by import
competition through FY 2007. Provides for continuation of assistance beyond FY
2007 for certain eligible workers and farmers.
(Sec. 112) Revises requirements with respect to the filing of a petition for
eligibility certification of a group of workers for TAA. Authorizes the petition
to be filed simultaneously with the Secretary of Labor (Secretary) and with the
Governor of the State in which such worker's firm is located by employers of
such workers, one-stop operators or one-stop partners, including State
employment security agencies, or the State dislocated worker unit established on
behalf of such workers. Requires the Governor, upon receipt of a petition, to:
(1) ensure that rapid response assistance, and appropriate core and intensive
services authorized under other Federal laws, are made available to the workers;
and (2) assist the Secretary in the review of the petition and providing other
assistance as the Secretary may request.
Reduces from 60 to 40 days the review period within which the Secretary must
respond to petitions for certification of eligibility to apply for adjustment
assistance.
(Sec. 113) Revises requirements with respect to eligibility certification of
a group of workers for TAA. Requires the Secretary to certify a group of workers
as eligible to apply for such assistance if a significant number or proportion
of workers in a firm have become totally or partially separated, or are
threatened to become totally or partially separated, and that: (1) the sales or
production, or both, of the firm have decreased absolutely, imports of articles
like or directly competitive with articles produced by the firm have increased,
and the increase in such imports contributed to the workers' separation or
threat of separation and to the decline in the sales or production of the firm;
or (2) there has been a shift in production by the workers' firm (or
subdivision) to a foreign country of articles like or directly competitive with
articles produced by the firm and the country to which the firm has shifted
production is party to a free trade agreement with the United States or is a
beneficiary country under the Andean Trade Preference Act, African Growth and
Opportunity Act, or the Caribbean Basin Economic Recovery Act, or there has been
or is likely to be an increase in imports of articles that are likely or
directly competitive with articles produced by the firm.
Provides for the TAA-eligibility certification of adversely affected
secondary workers employed at a supplier or downstream producer to a firm that
employed a group of workers certified TAA-eligible. Defines "downstream
producer" as a firm that performs additional, value-added production processes
to articles produced by another firm which are the basis for the eligibility
certification for a group of workers employed by such other firm because of an
increase in imports from, or a shift in production to, Canada or Mexico.
(Sec. 114) Revises enrollment in training requirements with respect to
qualification for trade readjustment allowances, setting an enrollment deadline
of 16 weeks after separation.
(Sec. 115) Authorizes the Secretary to waive the training enrollment
requirement for all TAA-eligible workers if training is not feasible or
appropriate because, among other reasons, the worker: (1) will be recalled by
the firm from which the separation occurred; (2) possesses marketable skills for
suitable employment; (3) is within two years of meeting requirements for
retirement benefits; or (4) is unable to participate in training for health
reasons.
(Sec. 116) Extends for an additional 26 weeks (130 weeks in total) the
permissible maximum period for payment of TAA to workers who require a program
of remedial education to complete their job training.
Declares that for purposes of TAA eligibility a worker shall be treated as
participating in training during any week which is a part of a break in training
that does not exceed 30 days (currently, 14 days) if the worker was
participating in an approved training program before the beginning of such break
in training and the program provides for the break.
(Sec. 117) Increases to $220 million the annual total amount of worker
training payments.
(Sec. 118) Sets forth training programs that are approved for such workers,
including employer-based training that provides on-the-job training and
customized training. Authorizes the Secretary to pay the costs of on-the-job
training of a worker only if, among other things, the employer is provided
reimbursement of not more than 50 percent of the wage rate of the participant,
for the cost of providing the training, and additional supervision related to
such training.
(Sec. 119) Requires the Secretary to make every reasonable effort to secure
for workers certain employment services provided through one-stop delivery
systems under the Workforce Investment Act.
(Sec. 120) Allows funds obligated for certain activities to be expended by a
State in the succeeding two fiscal years.
(Sec. 121) Increases to $1,250 per worker the maximum amount of job search
and relocation allowances.
(Sec. 123) Repeals the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA)
transitional adjustment assistance program to provide for a single, unified TAA
program.
(Sec. 124) Directs the Secretary to establish an alternative TAA program for
older workers. Provides up to $10,000 per worker over two years of certain wage
benefits to workers age 50 or older who do not earn more than $50,000 a year in
wages from reemployment.
(Sec. 125) Expresses the sense of Congress that the Secretary, working
independently and in conjunction with the States, should provide workers with
more specific information about benefits, training, and other employment
services, as well as application procedures, under the TAA program.

requirements and, if so, to issue such a certification.
Requires the International Trade Commission to notify the Secretary of
Agriculture immediately whenever it begins an investigation into whether an
agricultural commodity is being imported into the United States in such
increased quantities as to be a substantial cause or threat of serious injury to
a domestic industry producing an agricultural commodity like or directly
competitive with the imported agricultural commodity. Requires the Secretary of
Agriculture, upon receipt of the notification, to study and report to the
President on: (1) the number of agricultural commodity producers producing a
like or directly competitive agricultural commodity who have been or are likely
to be certified as eligible for adjustment assistance; and (2) the extent to
which the adjustment of such producers to the import competition may be
facilitated through the use of existing programs.
Directs the Secretary of Agriculture to provide agricultural commodity
producers with information about TAA petition and application procedures,

operating such a pool that restricts premiums to no more than 150 percent of the

coverage options, and has in effect a mechanism reasonably designed to ensure
continued funding of losses incurred in connection with the pool's operation.
(Sec. 202) Amends the Internal Revenue Code to direct the Secretary of the
Treasury to establish a program to make limited advance payments of the tax
credit to providers of health insurance on behalf of an eligible individual
