Well that’s messed up. “Level the playing field”??? Like businesses and the wealthy oligarchs were being treated unfairly??? Record industry profits with stagnant wages and the problem is the workers???
Exactly. Think they deserve a fucking wage, they’re lucky they have a fucking job! /S
States rights for me, none for thee.
It was always about states’ rights to own people.
Unemployment while on strike?? That doesn’t exist in my eu country, I didn’t know it existed anywhere at all!
Is this a thing anywhere else in the world?? My quick web search only returns these blue states in the USA…
Yeah Oregon and Washington just passed this, it doesnt even take effect until next year.
From the WA State Standard: “Workers will be eligible for unemployment benefits starting 15 to 21 days after the strike begins, depending on the day the strike starts. If the contract is resolved before that time, benefits will not be issued.”
So basically only if the strike goes on for several weeks, and also if the strikers get any retroactive pay then they have to pay back the unemployment. No one can just “strike for a day” and get paid like they’re claiming.
