SEC. 2. COVERAGE OF MIXED-INCOME INDIVIDUALS.

    (a) In General.--Section 2102(c) of the CARES Act is amended by 
adding at the end the following:
            ``(4) In case of an individual who--
                    ``(A)(i) would be a covered individual but for 
                subsection (a)(3)(A)(i); or
                    ``(ii) is employed but is unable or unavailable to 
                earn self-employment income because of factors 
                described in subsection (a)(3)(A)(ii) and otherwise 
                satisfies the requirements of subsection (a)(3);
                    ``(B) during the individual's most recent taxable 
                year ending prior to the individual's application for 
                assistance under this section, received at least $7,250 
                from self-employment; and
                    ``(C) makes an irrevocable election to be treated 
                as a covered individual under this section for each 
                week, with respect to which assistance under this 
                section is available, that begins--
                            ``(i) after the date of such election; or
                            ``(ii) before such date, but only if the 
                        individual did not otherwise receive 
                        unemployment benefits for such week under this 
                        section, section 2104, section 2107, or as 
                        determined under State law,
        such individual shall be treated as a covered individual 
        described in subsection (d)(2) for such weeks. An individual 
        with respect to which this paragraph applies for a week shall 
        be deemed ineligible for regular compensation or extended 
        benefits under State or Federal law or pandemic emergency 
        unemployment compensation under section 2107 for such week.''.
    (b) Applicability.--The amendment made by subsection (a) shall not 
apply with respect to a State participating in an agreement under

become effective as determined by such State in agreement with the 
Secretary of Labor.
