Bill: Strike Ballot Reform Act
Details
Submitted by[?]: SLP-Libertarian Alliance
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: January 4140
Description[?]:
| Mr Speaker We wish to make a middle ground proposal that accounts for both the need of union bosses to consult their members before striking, but at the same is reasonable in its requirements. We hope that our proposal is an agreeable compromise between union management's need to consult the workers while at the same time not jeopardizing the power that the threat of strike should have. |
