Summary of Bill S 852

Bill 119 s 852, also known as the Protecting the Right to Organize (PRO) Act, is a piece of legislation that aims to amend several key labor laws in the United States. The bill seeks to make significant changes to the National Labor Relations Act, the Labor Management Relations Act of 1947, and the Labor-Management Reporting and Disclosure Act of 1959.

One of the main goals of the PRO Act is to strengthen the rights of workers to organize and collectively bargain. The bill includes provisions that would make it easier for workers to form unions, as well as measures to prevent employers from interfering with union organizing efforts. Additionally, the PRO Act would prohibit employers from engaging in certain unfair labor practices, such as retaliating against workers for union activity.

The bill also includes provisions aimed at addressing issues related to worker misclassification and independent contractor status. It would clarify the definition of employee under the National Labor Relations Act to ensure that more workers are eligible for protections under the law. Overall, the PRO Act is intended to level the playing field between workers and employers, and to empower workers to advocate for better wages, benefits, and working conditions. The bill has garnered support from labor unions and worker advocacy groups, who see it as a crucial step towards strengthening the rights of workers in the United States.
