Substitute offered
by

The substitute failed by voice vote
Passed in the House 68 to 41 (details)
To expand the power of school employee unions to bargain for non-compensation related school management issues, including decisions to privatize non-instructional service, the starting date of the school year, and the composition of site-based decisionmaking bodies. Under current law these decisions are the exclusive provenance of elected school boards, and unions cannot attempt to influence them in collective bargaining negotiations.
Referred to the Committee on Education
Substitute offered
To replace the previous version of the bill with one that essentially replaces the House-passed bill with the provisions of Senate Bill 982.
The substitute passed by voice vote
Passed in the Senate 24 to 13 (details)
To revise the Public Employees Relations Act to accommodate the powers that Senate Bill 981 would give a “turnaround school chief educational officer” to renegotiate and ultimately set aside certain labor contract provisions (seniority and work rules).
Failed in the House 0 to 108 (details)
To concur with a Senate-passed version of the bill. The vote sends the bill to a House-Senate conference committee to work out the differences.
Received
To adopt a compromise version of the bill reported by a House-Senate conference committee. This would revise the Public Employees Relations Act to accommodate the powers that House Bill 4787 would give a state school "reform/redesign officer" to revise certain labor contract provisions (seniority and work rules). The bill would also prohibit privatizing non-instructional services in a public school unless the current union employees are given an opportunity to bid on the contract.
Passed in the House 94 to 4 (details)
Passed in the Senate 26 to 5 (details)
