What it does

The Ask the Union Members Act would require labor organizations to use secret ballot elections for both ratifying collective bargaining agreements and authorizing strikes, ensuring that such actions are approved by a majority of union members in good standing. It would mandate that proposed contracts be provided to members at least 72 hours before a ratification vote and prohibit strike authorization without a secret ballot majority vote. The bill’s provisions would take effect 18 months after enactment.
