Pay Down the Unemployment Insurance Fund Debt Help Employers Avoid Costly Fee Increase Support the $4 Billion Budget Allocation from the $62 Billion Surplus
PLEASE CALL TODAY!!
Senator Richard Pan 916.651.4006
Assemblyman Jim Cooper 916.319.2009
Assemblyman Ken Cooley 916.319.2008
Background:
COVID-19 Shutdowns Led to a Historic UI Fund Debt: COVID-19 shutdowns meant more Californians than ever before claimed unemployment, causing CA’s UI Fund to fall nearly $20 billion into debt.
UI Fund Debt Means Higher Per-Employee Taxes Starting in 2023: When the UI Fund is in debt, all employers in California pay increased payroll taxes on a per-employee basis, regardless of size or industry. Those taxes start at $21 per employee, and rise by $21 every year. In 2023, these taxes will be roughly $350 million statewide. However, they will rise significantly over time, soaring to $1 billion by 2025 and $2 billion by 2028.
Other States Have Helped Pay Down UI Fund Debts: Twenty-two states have recognized the effect of COVID-19 on their UI Funds and stepped into help their business communities with the increased taxes.
A Coalition of Business Groups Urge the Legislature to Approve a 2-pronged Approach:
Immediate Tax Relief of $1 billion: To address the immediate tax increases coming in January 2023, businesses need tax relief so that they are not disincentivized from hiring and rebuilding. It would cost California about $1 billion to cover the 2023 and 2024 calendar year tax increases for all employers.
$3 billion To Pay Down a Portion of Outstanding Debt: The largest tax increases will hit California businesses in later years, and the state will be forced to pay interest on the outstanding principal. A direct payment now would be a good use of a one-time surplus to address costs that we know are coming in future years.
$4 BILLION FOR SHORT AND LONG-TERM AID FOR CA’s UI Fund
