Bill > A00014

This bill amends the Civil Service Law and the Administrative Code of the City of New York to allow public employee organizations an opportunity to reconsider and re-vote on a written agreement that was initially voted down. The key provisions include defining the "ratification period" during which the employee organization can submit the agreement for a vote or re-vote, prohibiting the public employer from withdrawing or repudiating the agreement during the ratification period, and preventing the public employer from interfering with the vote or re-vote process. The bill aims to provide more flexibility for public employee organizations to reconsider and potentially accept written agreements that were initially rejected.
