By joining together across sectors and industries, we can achieve economic stability, family-sustaining wages, and a brighter future for everyone.

SB 1: The Worst Attack on Working People Since SB 5

This is not a false alarm. An anti-worker state senator, Jerry Cirino, recently introduced Senate Bill 1 (SB 1), the worst attack on collective bargaining rights since SB 5, the unfair, unsafe law in 2011 that would have hurt us all.

SB 1 attacks workers' rights by limiting what can be collectively bargained in a contract and banning strikes for faculty. We know from past attacks that anti-worker politicians love to carve out groups of workers and curtail their rights, before eventually expanding that attack to all workers. If this bill passes, every public sector union member – including teachers, library workers, and children’s services social workers – in Ohio should be prepared for similar attacks on their union rights.
