What sign are you talking about? If it's a no-guns signs, it's not illegal, in my opinion.
State preemption does not apply, as the unemployment office is a state agency. The State does not preempt itself.

Get a picture of the signage so you will know what law they say one would be violating, which there is none to my knowledge as the Director of Work Source feels it is with in his power to restrict firearms for the safety of his employees which is not covered in RCW 9.41.300.
I remember someone from OCDO recently reported on open carrying into a work source recently with out an issue.
If one needs a job bad enough they might consider leaving their firearm home or in the car. Which is the priority, being right? Or feeding yourself and family? Any gun prohibitions can be dealt with later.
On the sign they quote RCW 9.41.300. Do I have to go back there and take a picture?
Why. Because of a illegal sign on the door. I really need to find work.
Any PDFs on line I can give to them that has the law on my side?
And to the Police when they meet me?

Oh. Thanks, junior.Opinions really don't fly on this forum where laws are concerned.
Oh. Thanks, junior.
Pardon me, but when I make a statement here on OCDO-WA and don't qualify it with the words "in my opinion" them I'm accused of being a bully or troll, or someone who is unwilling to accept that other's thoughts on the matter might have some validity. Excuse me for trying to soften my message.
Leave aside, for a moment, the state constitution. We operate under a British Common Law system, where that which is not specifically prohibited, is allowed. Where, in the law, is the unemployment office not allowed to bar guns with an administrative rule?
Clearly, Article 1, Section 24 of the state constitution applies here, but there is no case law to back up my opinion on that. I doubt that anyone shoving the state constitution under some administrator's nose will help in this situation. So, as a practical matter, in my opinion, they can ban guns, and they will continue to do so until someone sues them. Where is the W.A.C.?

Where is the Washington Arms Collectors?
I think you know that you were referring to Washington Administrative Code, not Washington Arms Collectors.
