Trade Adjustment Assistance Modernization Act

The bill reauthorizes and modifies the Trade Adjustment Assistance programs under the Trade Act of 1974 for workers, firms, communities, community colleges, and agricultural producers. Provisions shown in the provided text broaden group eligibility criteria (including decreases in exports or imports and treatment of staffed workers, teleworkers, and successors-in-interest), require notice in native languages and a second notice before unemployment benefits are exhausted, and allow sustained outreach through contact collection and peer support. The text also modifies training-waiver conditions (adding recall and near-retirement exemptions), repeals a 2015 provision (Section 406 snapback), and extends the program to additional categories; the provided text was truncated, so later sections, including the health coverage tax credit, are not fully reflected.
