Unemployment for Striking Workers Bill Advancing in OR

OR Lawmakers Close to Approving Unemployment for Striking Workers

The Oregon House passed a bill (SB 916) that would allow striking workers to receive unemployment benefits for up to 26 weeks. The Senate passed the measure in March but will have to vote on it again because it was amended by the House. New York, New Jersey and Washington have already authorized unemployment benefits for striking workers. (OREGONIAN)
