Introduced by: Nicholas J. Freitas | all patrons    ...    notes | add to my profiles

SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:

Contracts with government agencies for public works; agreements with labor organizations. Removes certain provisions of the Code that require bidders for public works contracts to enter into or adhere to pre-hire collective bargaining agreements with labor organizations on public works projects. The bill reverts the application of such provisions to state agencies specifically, rather than public bodies, which distinction was made in 2020. The bill also adds the option for injunctive relief to prevent a violation of its provisions, which was repealed in 2020. The provisions of the bill do not apply to public-private agreements that may interfere with the labor relations of employees covered by the federal National Labor Relations Act or Railway Labor Act.
