Source data: California (through 2026-08-11), Washington (through 2026-08-14), Maryland (through 2026-08-10).
Not counted, because their published data is more than three weeks behind: Texas (last filing 2026-06-23). A state that has stopped publishing has not stopped laying people off, so leaving it out beats counting it as a zero.

Layoffs are the ones you can see coming. Resignations are not.
A WARN notice gives a state 60 days of warning. Nobody files one before they resign. TeamPredict reads the public LinkedIn signals your own team is already giving off and flags who looks likely to leave, so you get the same lead time on the departures that actually hurt.
