AI Summary
This bill ratifies a collective bargaining agreement between the University of Wisconsin-Madison and the Wisconsin State Building Trades Negotiating Committee for the 2025-26 fiscal year, which covers employees in the building trades crafts collective bargaining unit. The bill authorizes the necessary expenditure of funds from the state's appropriations to implement the agreement, which has been approved by the employees and recommended by the joint committee on employment relations. The University of Wisconsin-Madison is required to file an official, certified copy of the agreement with the secretary of state, and the bill stipulates that no informal or additional agreements not part of the official document will be considered approved by the legislature. The act will take effect the day after publication, with specific provisions potentially having different effective dates as outlined in the original agreement. This type of bill is typical for public sector labor negotiations, ensuring that negotiated compensation and working conditions for a specific group of state employees are formally approved and funded.
