Section 207.041(b), Labor Code, is amended to 1-6 read as follows: 1-7 (b) Benefits are not payable to an individual based on 1-8 services performed for an educational institution in a capacity 1-9 other than a capacity described by Subsection (a) for a week that 1-10 begins during a period between two successive academic years or 1-11 terms if: 1-12 (1) the individual performed the services in the first 1-13 of the academic years or terms; and 1-14 (2) there is a reasonable assurance that the 1-15 individual will perform substantially the same services in the 1-16 second of the academic years or terms. 1-17 SECTION 2. This Act takes effect September 1, 1995, and 1-18 applies only to a claim for unemployment compensation benefits that 1-19 is filed with the Texas Employment Commission on or after January 1-20 1, 1996. A claim filed before January 1, 1996, is governed by the 1-21 law as it existed immediately before the effective date of this 1-22 Act, and that law is continued in effect for that purpose. 1-23 SECTION 3. The importance of this legislation and the 1-24 crowded condition of the calendars in both houses create an 2-1 emergency and an imperative public necessity that the 2-2 constitutional rule requiring bills to be read on three several 2-3 days in each house be suspended, and this rule is hereby suspended.
