Worker Enfranchisement Act

The Worker Enfranchisement Act changes the process for unions to become the official representative of workers. It requires that a union must be chosen by a majority of all eligible workers in a secret ballot vote where at least two-thirds of those workers participate. This applies directly to private-sector employees and unions seeking to represent them in workplaces covered by the National Labor Relations Act. The law modifies existing rules to strengthen union recognition requirements through higher voter turnout thresholds.
