U.S. Representative Rick Larsen (WA-2) issued the following announcement on July 31

Update on job search requirements

The governor, with support from the Legislature, has announced that job search requirements will remain suspended through Sept. 1. This means the soonest claimants will be required to actively seek work is Sept. 6.

You can continue to answer “no” to the job search question on your weekly claim until the suspension is lifted.
