    Protesting Against The Bill SB 5

            What does SB 5 do:

    1. End all collective bargaining rights for state employees, including at universities and colleges;
    2. Local police and firefighters would have weakened rights to binding arbitration by instead required deadlocked parties to extend their contract for a year first;
    3. Local government could no longer include terms of health insurance coverage or costs in collective bargaining agreements.  Management will pick insurance policies, and employees must cover at least 20 percent of the cost;
    4. Allow local governments to hire permanent replacement workers during a strike (i.e. “scabs.”)
    5. Prohibits public employers from picking up extra employee pension contributions;
    6. Eliminates from state law automatic pay increases for experience and education (no automatic raise when you get your Masters Degree, teachers!);
    7. Eliminates from state law leave policies and automatic 15 sick days for teachers;
    8. Prohibits school districts from bargaining away certain management powers, such as the ability to deploy teachers to certain buildings;
    9. No longer makes longevity a deciding factor when management is deciding to make layoffs;
    10. Requires a public employer to publish on its website any changes in the union contract that impacts compensation of workers, including wages, length of service payments, and insurance coverage.;
    11. Requires the employer and the State Employment Relations Board to publish the parties’ offers on their websites before and after fact-finding is complete; and
    12. Allows schools or local governments in fiscal emergency to terminate or modify a collective bargaining agreement
