Employment and Labor Legislation Tracker is issued monthly. Receive each issue by email, with the bills behind it in your dashboard. 14-day trial.
In brief
September 2026 brought 51 stage changes across the Employment and Labor Legislation Tracker, with California accounting for 36 of those movements and 33 enactments. Among the most consequential new laws, California enacted measures prohibiting employers from using workplace surveillance tools in bathrooms, locker rooms, and lactation spaces (AB 1331), barring automated decision systems from inferring protected status or solely making termination decisions (SB 947), and requiring 60-day advance notice before technological displacement of 50 or more workers by artificial intelligence or automation (SB 951). Delaware enacted legislation allowing unemployment benefits after a two-week waiting period for workers involved in labor disputes other than lockouts (SB 26). Three California bills were vetoed, including one that would have disqualified from public employment anyone previously employed by an immigration enforcement entity between January 2025 and January 2029 (AB 1896). A federal bill prohibiting individuals convicted of sex offenses against minors from serving in certain union positions passed one chamber.
