The Arkansas House approved House Bill 340 by 56 to 25, restricting unemployment benefits for workers who quit or are fired. The bill aims to protect the state trust fund, which has fallen from 45 million to 29 million dollars, by requiring longer work periods before benefits. Pregnant workers and those who quit to follow a spouse face stricter earning and work-time criteria to qualify.
