Relating to: ratification of the agreement negotiated between the Board of Regents of the University of Wisconsin System and the Wisconsin State Building Trades Negotiating Committee, for the 2025-26 fiscal year, covering employees in the building trades crafts collective bargaining unit, and authorizing an expenditure of funds. (FE)

AB 787 ratifies a negotiated collective bargaining agreement between the University of Wisconsin System and the Wisconsin State Building Trades Negotiating Committee for the 2025-26 fiscal year. It directly affects unionized building trades workers (excluding those at UW-Madison) covered under the agreement. The bill authorizes state funds to implement the agreement’s terms, including wages and working conditions negotiated for these employees. This is a procedural measure to formalize an existing labor agreement, not a new policy.
