Counted across California, Washington and Maryland, the states whose labor departments publish machine-readable filings.

Source data: California (through 2026-08-24), Washington (through 2026-08-28), Maryland (through 2026-08-25).

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.
