Presidential Power to Modify Federal Agency Collective Bargaining Agreements.
This new law grants the U.S. President the authority to unilaterally modify or terminate parts of collective bargaining agreements within federal agencies. This means that employment terms for federal employees, previously negotiated, can be altered by the President, potentially impacting their workplace rights and responsibilities.
Key points
The President can terminate or modify provisions of collective bargaining agreements in federal agencies that were in force when they took office.
Any collective bargaining agreement provision conflicting with a presidential order becomes unenforceable.
The incumbent President cannot exercise this new authority; it applies to future presidents.
Federal agencies must notify unions of any terminations or conflicting provisions.
