Bill Summary
Relative to allowing legislative employees to unionize. Labor and Workforce Development.
AI Summary
This bill amends Chapter 150E of the General Laws to allow legislative employees to unionize. Specifically, it inserts the word "legislative" after "executive" in the definition of "public employer" in the law, which means that the general court (i.e., the state legislature) is included as a public employer that must engage in collective bargaining with its employees. The bill also adds the speaker of the house and president of the senate to the definition of "public employer" in the context of the general court.
