SALT Act

The SALT Act requires labor unions and labor relations consultants to report specific payments and agreements aimed at influencing employees' decisions about union organizing. Unions must disclose payments made to employees (or groups) of an employer (not the union) to persuade them about union representation, while consultants must report agreements to provide labor relations advice with that purpose. Reports must detail the amount, date, recipient's name and address, and the targeted employer's location. These filings - due within 30 days of new agreements and annually for ongoing ones - are submitted to the Secretary of Labor, increasing transparency around labor-related financial activities.
