Cola-0 essentially is a furlough with the company paying your portion of health benefits. You are entitled to unemployment based on what your state's laws are.
ELS is "empty line status" same benefits as above but with the ability to pick up open time. Must remain current (They'll send you for landings/recurrent training).
TBH by the time you would get employed and hit the line, these programs would probably be gone. The LOA is only in effect until March 31st.
After that it's real furloughs or something different all together.... or maybe an extension?
