H.B. 267 would ban public employers from entering into collective bargaining contracts with public employees.

It would also prevent public funds from being spent in support of labor unions and would prevent union members from receiving state retirement benefits.

The bill passed the Utah House of Representatives 42-32 with some Republicans joining Democrats in pushing back.

The Utah Education Association said it was “deeply disappointed” by the bill’s passing.
