Bans individuals convicted of sex offenses against minors from holding union leadership roles.
This bill would stop people convicted of sex offenses against minors from holding important jobs in labor unions. It adds these crimes to a list of offenses that already prevent individuals from serving in leadership or financial roles. This change would take effect 30 days after the bill becomes law.
Today, federal law prohibits people convicted of certain serious crimes, like murder or robbery, from holding union leadership roles. However, it does not specifically include sex offenses against minors. After this bill, people convicted of a sex offense against a minor would also be banned from these key union positions, taking effect 30 days after the bill becomes law.
