Summary

The CAL Repayment Act changes the Social Security Act so that when a state receives federal grant or transfer money, it must first use that money to clear any outstanding unemployment‑insurance loans. If a state spends the money on something else, it must repay the full amount to the federal government within five days of a violation finding. This ensures that federal advances are repaid promptly before other state projects are funded.
