This bill amends the Labor-Management Reporting and Disclosure Act of 1959 to add "sex offense against a minor" to the list of crimes that disqualify someone from serving as a union officer, employee, consultant, or other trust position for a set period after conviction. It also makes a small punctuation fix to the law. The change would take effect 30 days after becoming law.
Labor unions and their members, since the law governs who can hold union leadership or trust-based positions. Individuals with past convictions for sex offenses against minors who might seek such roles would also be affected.
The change extends existing restrictions on union leadership, already applied to people convicted of crimes like murder, to also cover convicted sex offenders against minors.
