Clerk reports governor's message transmitting tentative United Public Workers agreement and funding measure
Summary
The House clerk informed members that the governor transmitted a tentative collective bargaining agreement for United Public Workers units 1 and 10 and a proposed measure to fund the agreement; the clerk also reported that several bills were signed into law on April 23, 2025 as Acts 24–27.
The House clerk reported receipt of Governor's Message No. 12 informing the House that a tentative agreement has been reached concerning United Public Workers collective bargaining Units 1 and 10 and transmitting a proposed measure to fund the agreement.
The clerk told members: "We're in receipt of Governor's Message number 12, informing the House that a tentative agreement has been reached concerning United Public Workers collective bargaining units 1 and 10 and transmitting a proposed measure to fund the agreement."
The clerk also reported receipt of Governor's Messages Nos. 1124 through 1127, informing the House that the noted House and Senate bills were signed into law on April 23, 2025 and designated as Acts 24 through 27.
Why it matters: A governor‑transmitted funding measure is typically required to implement a statewide collective bargaining agreement. The tentative agreement for UPW units 1 and 10 will proceed through legislative and administrative steps before funds are released.
What’s next: The transmitted measure to fund the tentative agreement will be considered through the legislature’s usual committee and fiscal processes; the transcript did not specify bill numbers or funding totals for that measure.
