Protecting Taxpayers’ Wallets Act of 2025
This bill appears to be dead.
No action recorded in 1 year, 4 months. The structural status reflects an earlier milestone, not current activity.
This bill requires labor unions representing federal agency employees to pay agencies for resources and official time they use for union activities. The bill directs federal agencies to charge unions a fee for using agency resources that is based on (1) the value of time spent by union representatives on union activities rather than agency business, and (2) the value of resources provided by the agency related to these activities, such as parking spaces and equipment. Agencies must track the amount of time union representatives use for union purposes and discipline representatives who fail to properly record such time. If a union has not paid in full by 90 days following a notice of the fee, the agency (1) may not provide further time or resources to the union until it is paid in full; and (2) is not subject to grievance procedures, binding arbitration, or unfair labor practice complaints or proceedings by the union. Further, an agency must notify a union and the Federal Labor Relations Authority (FLRA) when a union's unpaid balance has been outstanding for 365 days and, on the 380th day, the FLRA must terminate the union's certification as the exclusive representative of employees of the agency. The bill requires each agency's Office of Inspector General to periodically report on agency and union compliance with the bill's requirements.
