Key Points
  • The bill repeals subsection (b) of section 14 of the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA), which is related to right-to-work laws.

  • This repeal would preempt state right-to-work laws, which means that these laws would no longer be valid or effective.

  • The overall impact of the bill would be to establish a nationwide framework for unionization, potentially overriding state laws that allow employees to work without being required to join or financially support a union.
