Taxpayer-Funded Union Time Transparency Act

S 3955, the Taxpayer-Funded Union Time Transparency Act, requires federal agencies to publicly report annually on the use of taxpayer-funded "official time" (paid time for union activities by government employees). Agencies must detail costs, the purpose of each authorization, employee positions and pay, hours spent on union activities, and use of agency resources by unions. This affects all federal agencies and their employees who utilize official time under existing law (section 7131 of Title 5, U.S. Code). The bill mandates transparent disclosure of how taxpayer funds are used for union-related work, without changing existing rules on official time.
