Bill overview
This bill clarifies that constitutional officers – such as the Governor, Lieutenant Governor, Attorney General, Secretary of the Commonwealth, Treasurer, and Auditor – are considered the employers of their department employees for the purpose of collective bargaining. Currently, there can be confusion about who has the authority to negotiate with employee unions. This legislation aims to establish a clear and consistent framework for these negotiations, ensuring employees have a designated employer for bargaining purposes.
