The bill removes the requirement for a second election to negotiate a union security agreement clause during collective bargaining.
Previously, after a union was recognized, a separate election was needed to authorize negotiations over union security agreements—clauses that might require employees to join the union or pay dues as a condition of employment.
Eliminating this second election allows recognized unions and employers to directly negotiate union security provisions without additional procedural steps.
Summary
The bill eliminates the requirement for a second election to
negotiate a union security agreement clause in the collective bargaining process.
