Rappahannock supervisors adopt resolution opposing mandatory collective bargaining in Virginia bills
Summary
The Rappahannock County Board of Supervisors adopted a resolution opposing proposed mandatory collective-bargaining legislation (referencing House Bill 1263 and Senate Bill 378); the item had been added earlier to the agenda and passed by roll-call vote.
The Rappahannock County Board of Supervisors voted to adopt a resolution opposing proposed mandatory collective-bargaining legislation in the General Assembly, citing concerns raised in a draft provided by the Virginia Association of Counties.
Chair moving the item explained the resolution was rooted in House Bill 1263 and Senate Bill 378 as presented in the meeting addendum. A supervisor moved the resolution and another seconded; the board approved it by roll-call vote, with supervisors present recorded as voting in favor.
The language and local numbers cited in the resolution were discussed briefly at the meeting; the supervisor who added the item earlier in the session explained the drafting was consistent with materials circulated by county associations and that many localities were considering similar statements.
The resolution is now part of the record and will be communicated to the county’s legislative contacts and associations, according to board practice.
