The University of Michigan and Wayne State University will lose 15% of their state appropriations next year if they negotiate contracts with unions "under certain circumstances" (whatever they may be).
Sec. 265b. Employee Contracting – NEW
Provides that funds appropriated for fiduciary responsibility in employee contracting be paid to a university only if it does not extend, renew, or enter into a labor contract under certain circumstances between December 10, 2012 and March 28, 2013 without achieving 10% or greater savings and does not enter into a contract between the same dates that contains only terms that constitute a union security agreement that requires any of several specified employee actions as a condition of employment. House adds new section.
Comments
More from a Free Press editorial. The law doesn't go into effect until the end of March but the GOP legislators--those same legislators who quickly passed the RTW bill without benefit of discussion--want any contracts to be retroactive to when they decided to do this. If the law isn't in effect, any contract up to the effective date should be exempt.
But this is Michigan and we don't live by the same rules as everyone else. We have a dictatorship in our state, and since the dictators were fairly elected, there isn't a damn thing we can do about it.
