Bill > SCR56

This concurrent resolution proposes an amendment to the New Jersey Constitution to explicitly grant public employees the right to engage in collective bargaining, which means they will have the legal right to negotiate terms and conditions of employment with their employers through representatives of their choosing. Currently, the Constitution allows public employees to organize and present grievances and proposals, but it does not specifically guarantee the right to collective bargaining, which involves formal negotiation processes. If approved by the legislature and then by voters in a general election, this amendment would strengthen the bargaining power of public sector workers in New Jersey.
