Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
Under current law, a collective bargaining unit that represents public safety employees (law enforcement officers) may generally bargain wages, hours, and conditions of employment. This bill prohibits public safety bargaining units that represent law enforcement officers from bargaining the reversal of a decision by a police chief to fire a law enforcement officer. The bill does not prohibit a fire and police commission or police and fire commission from rehiring a law enforcement officer who was fired.
