Layoff notices against sponsors

Forty-seven states and the District of Columbia are read, each from the record it publishes, and each refreshes on its own. Most post a spreadsheet, a list or a page a year. A few print their notices in a PDF, and five share one job-center search. Notices from 2019 on are kept, or from whenever a state's record begins. New Jersey and Pennsylvania print only the month a notice was posted, so the month is shown. Oklahoma and Minnesota print no worker count, and Hawaii's notices before August 2026 and West Virginia's outside the list it compiled for 2022 to 2024 are letters, so those rows carry no count. Each state's newest notice is checked against its own budget, so a source going quiet shows up as a stale date and never as a silent zero.

Louisiana and New Mexico ask automated readers to stay off their files, Missouri puts a browser check in front of its pages, and Nevada's site and the Texas agency's spreadsheet turn scripts away. Those are read from the Internet Archive's copies (the public library of web pages), so nothing is asked of the state's own site. A copy is only as new as the Archive's latest visit: about daily for Louisiana and Texas, about monthly for Missouri and Nevada, and a few times a year for New Mexico. Texas's open data portal, last updated in July 2026, fills in its earlier years.

Three states aren't read, because none publishes a list. Arkansas keeps its notices confidential under state law, and New Hampshire's and Wyoming's agencies post none. A sponsor with layoffs in those states, or before the window read here, isn't cleared by this page. Matching means the filer's normalised name equals a PERM employer's, the same rule that groups DOL's own spellings of one company. A subsidiary filing under its own name doesn't match its parent, on purpose.
