Sec. 3112. Countercyclical employment policies


(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.
