Bill Summary
This bill prohibits state entities from including specified terms related to labor organization agreements in construction related contracts and grants.
AI Summary
This bill prohibits state government entities in New Hampshire from including specific terms in contracts and grants related to construction projects that involve labor organizations. This means that state agencies cannot require, prefer, or prohibit bidders, contractors, or subcontractors from entering into agreements with labor organizations, nor can they discriminate against them based on their affiliation or non-affiliation with such organizations. The bill defines "construction related project" broadly to include various building and infrastructure activities, and "governmental entity" as state agencies but not individual municipalities. While the bill generally prohibits these terms, it allows for exemptions if an imminent threat to public health or safety is present, and it clarifies that it does not prevent voluntary agreements with labor organizations or interfere with activities protected by federal labor law.
