No Union Time on the Taxpayer's Dime Act
HR 9191, the "No Union Time on the Taxpayer's Dime Act," amends 5 U.S.C. § 7131 to eliminate paid "official time" for federal employees performing union-related activities. The bill requires that any work employees do for labor organizations must occur during non-duty hours, not during regular work time. This directly affects federal workers who are union members, as it would end the practice of using paid work hours for union business. The key provision changes the existing rule to ensure union activities are conducted outside of standard work schedules, shifting the cost from taxpayers to employees' personal time.
