Bill > HB3316

This bill modifies existing Oregon law to require video recordings of labor negotiations for certain public educational institutions, including common and union high school districts, education service districts, community college districts, and public universities. The bill mandates that these public bodies must record all labor negotiations and post the video recordings on their website or social media platform within seven days of the negotiation. If a public body lacks broadband internet access, they may instead post an audio recording. The requirement applies to labor negotiations regardless of whether they are conducted in open meetings or executive sessions, with an exception for very small school districts with fewer than 50 students. The bill includes an emergency clause, meaning it will take effect immediately upon the Governor's signature, emphasizing the perceived urgency of increasing transparency in public educational labor negotiations. The legislation aims to provide greater public access to and understanding of labor negotiations conducted by these educational institutions.
