2SHB 2403 - H AMD

By Representative ___

     On page 10, beginning on line 27, after "pay" strike the remainder of the section and insert "an amount of money equivalent to the periodic dues and initiation fees uniformly required as a condition of acquiring or retaining membership in the exclusive bargaining representative to the charity listed with the United Fund, as defined in RCW 41.04.035, that the faculty member designates.  The faculty member must furnish written proof that such payments have been made."

 

 

 


 

EFFECT:  The amendment deletes the requirement that the faculty member and the exclusive bargaining representative must agree upon a nonreligious charity that will receive payment when a faculty member asserts a right of nonassociation based on a religious belief.  Instead, the faculty member may designate a United Fund charity of his or her choice to receive the alternative fee payment.
