An act relating to granting certain State employees the right to strike

This bill would allow unionized state employees in Vermont's Executive Branch and Judiciary to go on strike, changing current rules that prohibit such actions. The legislation removes existing prohibitions on striking and picketing found in state statutes, permitting these employees to exercise their right to strike during labor disputes. The changes would apply to those covered by collective bargaining agreements and would take effect on July 1, 2023.
