MD Binding Arbitration Bill

(Metropolitan Washington Council, AFL-CIO)

Prince George’s County  delegation chairman Rushern Baker tells UNION CITY! that a House vote on HB 712 is expected “in the next day or so” and says that “chances look very good” for passage by the full Legislature before adjournment next Monday. Baker calls the bill -- which provides for binding arbitration for Park & Planning Commission workers -- “a step forward for making sure that workers in PG and Montgomery County are taken care of.”
