Washington State may offer unemployment benefits to striking workers, pending governor's approval.
Washington State is poised to become the third state in the US to offer unemployment benefits to striking workers, following approval by the state Senate and House.
Senate Bill 5041 would provide up to six weeks of benefits and requires annual reports on strikes and costs.
The bill, which awaits Governor Bob Ferguson's signature, will take effect on January 1, 2026, and expire in 2035.
Republicans oppose the bill, fearing it could lead to more strikes and increased business costs.
