Overview

A 7179 is an Assembly bill introduced on March 21, 2025, and currently referred to the Codes Committee. The primary sponsor is Assemblymember Rodneyse Bichotte Hermelyn. The bill’s title indicates it would relate to disclosure requirements tied to collective bargaining agreements (CBAs). No text detailing the specific provisions has been provided in the summary available.

Key Provisions (as of available information)

  • Specific provisions, definitions, timelines, and enforcement mechanisms are not provided. The title suggests a focus on transparency or public access concerning CBAs.

    • Who is required to disclose and to whom (e.g., employers to employees, unions to members, or to the public).
    • What terms must be disclosed (e.g., wage scales, benefits, duration, side letters, grievance procedures).
    • Where disclosures must be made (e.g., public postings, websites, or official disclosures to a state or municipal body).
    • Timing and frequency of disclosures (e.g., within a certain period after agreement execution or renewal).
    • Exemptions or privacy protections for sensitive information.
    • Penalties or remedies for noncompliance.
    • Interaction with existing public records or labor law requirements.

Affected Parties

  • Labor unions and the employers with whom they negotiate CBAs.
