AI Summary

This bill aims to extend protections to lay teachers in parochial schools. Specifically, it amends the state's labor laws to include language that protects the "professional" rights of such teachers, and repeals an existing provision that had excluded them from certain unemployment benefits. The bill provides additional legal safeguards for these teachers, who are not clergy but serve in religious schools, in order to ensure their professional rights and entitlements are recognized.
