Coverage: 347 Texas notices on file, filed Mar 26, 2025 to Nov 3, 2026, collected daily from the state’s published layoff record (www.twc.texas.gov, data.texas.gov). A state may publish late or leave out worker counts, so this is a floor rather than a count of every layoff. States generally require a notice only from employers with 100 or more workers. See the national tracker for how we collect notices.
