HB 5606 Connecticut House · 2025 Regular Session

AN ACT REQUIRING A STATEMENT OF A PUBLIC EMPLOYEE'S RIGHT TO NOT BE A MEMBER OF A UNION.

HB 5606 requires state and municipal bargaining agreements and employee notices to include a clear, conspicuous statement about public employees' right to choose not to join a union. It directly affects all state and local government workers covered by collective bargaining agreements. The bill amends statutes to mandate this notice, ensuring employees are explicitly informed of their option to remain non-union members without penalty. This is a procedural requirement focused on transparency, not changing union membership rules.
