MA: Amendment to the Labor Relations Act (Statute)

[Gass3268]

If we amend out Section 1 Part 2 I'll be happy with it or if we make it explicitly clear that those who do not join the union/labor organization shall receive absolutely no benefits from that union. This includes wages, health care, vacation, union break rooms and etc. They will have to deal with their employer one on one to establish their wages and benefits. If they are fond to have taken advantage of the union that they wish not to join, they have to retroactively pay dues for the benefit they gained with a penalty or be fired.

Where did Section 1, Clause 4 come from?  What statute previously banned the unionization of those fields?

These fields have always historically been prohibited from unionizing. I don't think the Mideast passed a law that banned these fields from unionizing. I know that US law bans these fields from unionizing so if the Mideast has yet to pass a law changing anything the old US law still remains.

Any thoughts on my my amendment?

I think you forgot this section

The bill has been fixed to include the amendment.  Although clause 5 doesn't make sense:

"A three member panel with a representing from the union, the non-union employee and an independent arbitrator will decided if the non-union employee violated Clause 4."

sould that be "representative" and "will decide"?

Also, there's no clause 7.

That is correct on the grammar corrections.

[Gass3268]

Without objection, the amendment has been adopted.

The bill now reads as follows:
