SB2371 Summary

• Amends the Illinois Public Labor Relations Act to exclude Assistant State's Attorneys, Assistant Public Defenders, Assistant Appellate Defenders, Assistant Appellate Prosecutors, and attorneys in the Cook County Public Guardian's office from the definition of "managerial employee," preventing them from being classified as ineligible for union representation based on managerial status alone.

• Specifies that these attorney positions shall not be determined to be managerial employees as a matter of law, allowing eligibility for collective bargaining unit inclusion based on their actual job duties rather than job titles.

• Takes effect upon becoming law.
