(a) Programmatic entities
Any countercyclical efforts undertaken to aid in achieving the
purposes of section 3111 of this title shall consider for inclusion
the following programmatic entities:
(1) accelerated public works, including the development of
standby public works projects;
(2) public service employment;
(3) State and local grant programs;
(4) the levels and duration of unemployment insurance;
(5) skill training in both the private and public sectors, both
as a general remedy and as a supplement to unemployment
insurance;
(6) youth employment programs as specified in section 3115 of
this title;
(7) community development programs to provide employment in
activities of value to the States, local communities (including
rural areas), and the Nation;
(8) Federal procurement programs which are targeted on labor
surplus areas; and
(9) augmentation of other employment and training programs
which would help to reduce high levels of unemployment arising
from cyclical causes.
(b) Triggering mechanism
In any countercyclical efforts undertaken, the President shall
consider a triggering mechanism which will implement the program
during a period of rising unemployment and phase out the program
when unemployment is appropriately reduced, and incorporate
effective means to facilitate individuals assisted under programs
developed pursuant to this section to return promptly to regular
private and public employment as the economy recovers.
