Bill Summary
General Description: This bill repeals the Utah Right to Work Law.
AI Summary
This bill repeals the Utah Right to Work Law, which means it would eliminate existing provisions that protect an individual's right to work without being required to join a labor union or pay union dues as a condition of employment. The "Right to Work Law" is a set of statutes that prevent employers from forcing employees to join a union or pay union fees. By repealing these sections, the bill would remove these protections, potentially allowing for agreements that require union membership or fees. The bill specifies an effective date of May 6, 2026, for most of its provisions, with a later effective date of November 28, 2026, for changes related to the right to bargain collectively.
