A hotly debated bill (SB 916) passed out of committee in Oregon’s Senate last week would allow striking workers in both the public and private sector to collect unemployment benefits. Although New Jersey and New York allow striking workers to collect unemployment, both states also prohibit public employees from going on strike. Oregon does not.
