Referred to the House Committee on Education and Workforce.
This bill prohibits individuals convicted of sex offenses against minors from serving in leadership positions within labor unions. It amends the Labor-Management Reporting and Disclosure Act of 1959, which already bars people with certain criminal convictions from holding union office, by adding sex offenses against minors to the list of disqualifying crimes. The legislation would take effect 30 days after being signed into law and applies to union officials and leaders across the country. No new funding is required, as the bill simply establishes new eligibility requirements for existing union positions. The bill does not specify penalties beyond preventing individuals with these convictions from serving in union leadership roles.
