Bill Summary

A BILL To prohibit Federal employees from organizing, joining, or participating in labor unions for purposes of collective bargaining or representation, and for other purposes.

AI Summary

This bill, titled the "Federal Workforce Freedom Act," seeks to fundamentally change labor relations for federal employees by completely prohibiting them from organizing, joining, or participating in labor unions for collective bargaining purposes. The bill provides comprehensive definitions for key terms like "collective bargaining agreement," "Federal agency," "Federal employee," and "labor union," and establishes strict prohibitions preventing federal employees from engaging in union activities and federal agencies from recognizing or negotiating with labor unions. Additionally, the bill mandates the immediate termination of all existing collective bargaining agreements and requires the dismissal of any pending arbitration, dispute resolution, or grievance proceedings based on those agreements. As a technical measure, the bill also proposes repealing Chapter 71 of Title 5 of the United States Code, which currently governs labor-management relations in the federal workforce. If enacted, this legislation would effectively eliminate collective bargaining rights for federal employees, representing a significant change in federal labor policy that would remove workers' abilities to negotiate wages, benefits, working conditions, and other employment terms through union representation.
