108.04 (2) (h) and 108.04 (12) (f) of the statutes;
relating to:

allowing Social Security Disability Insurance recipients to receive concurrent

Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Under current law, in any week in any month that a claimant is receiving a benefit under the federal Social Security Disability Insurance program, that claimant is ineligible for unemployment insurance benefits. This bill repeals that prohibition and allows an otherwise eligible claimant to receive both federal Social Security Disability Insurance benefits and unemployment insurance benefits for the same period.
For further information see the state fiscal estimate, which will be printed as an appendix to this bill.
