Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.

Which schedule is in effect for a given calendar year depends on the cash balance of the state's unemployment reserve fund as of the preceding June 30.
Schedule D, which is in effect in calendar year 2021, is otherwise in effect for any calendar year whenever, as of the preceding June 30, the state's unemployment reserve fund has a cash balance of at least $1,200,000,000.
