- Senator McBroom, under his constitutional right of protest (Art. 4, Sec. 18), protested against concurring in the House substitute to Senate Bill No. 790. Senator McBroom’s statement is as follows: Mr. President, I’m feeling a little bit of whiplash, because when I started serving in the Legislature several years ago, legislation like this had been passed. And what did we see across the state? An outcry from our citizens who were suddenly finding their wages and paychecks garnished by a union that they didn’t know they were entering. People who were simply taking care of their family members suddenly found themselves losing money, and the Legislature worked hard to undo that because it was exceptionally unfair and undignified what happened. It was a scandal of immense proportions foisted on everyday citizens who needed every dollar they could get in order to take care of their loved ones. Were there some who are in a professional capacity, who could utilize some sort of representation? Sure there is, but the net was cast wide, spread wide, and entrapped many people unknowingly and unfairly. It is wrong for us to be doing this today. I think it’s immoral and I object to the passage of this. I am just appalled that we’re doing this to people who are just trying to take care of their loved ones. Senate Bill No. 791, entitled A bill to amend 1947 PA 336, entitled “An act to prohibit strikes by certain public employees; to provide review from disciplinary action with respect thereto; to provide for the mediation of grievances and the holding of elections; to declare and protect the rights and privileges of public employees; to require certain provisions in collective bargaining agreements; to prescribe means of enforcement and penalties for the violation of the provisions of this act; and to make appropriations,” by amending sections 1 and 14 (MCL 423.201 and 423.214), section 1 as amended by 2023 PA 237 and section 14 as amended by 2012 PA 349. The House of Representatives has substituted (H-1) the bill. The House of Representatives has passed the bill as substituted (H-1) and ordered that it be given immediate effect.
