SB 113 Summary

• Establishes a "Majority Support Petition" process through January 1, 2028, allowing labor organizations with existing collective bargaining agreements to certify as exclusive representatives by submitting proof of majority employee support, limited to 75 total certifications.

• Repeals existing labor peace election and non-labor peace election procedures, replacing them with the single Majority Support Petition process that operates similarly to the non-labor peace election framework.

• Requires employers seeking to appeal or challenge board orders involving monetary remedies to first post a bond equal to the full economic value of the order within 30 days as a condition for court filing.

• Modifies procedures for determining monetary remedies in unfair labor practice cases, requiring the board to order separate proceedings to specify the amount owed and any continuing accrual before the order becomes final.
