Bill > AB478

This bill repeals two specific sections of Wisconsin state law: section 66.0134 and section 947.21. While the exact content of these sections is not provided in the XML, the government summary indicates that the bill is removing a prohibition that previously prevented state and local governments from enacting regulations, policies, or requirements related to collective bargaining. Collective bargaining is a process where workers, often through labor unions, negotiate employment terms with employers. The National Labor Relations Act is a federal law that protects workers' rights to organize and engage in collective bargaining. By repealing these sections, the bill would allow state and local governments more flexibility to create laws and regulations concerning labor negotiations and worker rights, potentially making it easier for local jurisdictions to establish their own labor-related policies. The bill appears to be aimed at removing restrictions on how state and local governments can approach labor regulations, giving them more autonomy in addressing workplace and employment issues.
