Bill on public-sector union lists clears Iowa House
April 29, 2026 // Senate File 472, passed 56-34, deals with situations that supporters of the measure say would allow unions to avoid recertification elections required under the state’s 2017 collective bargaining law. Under the current law, government employers are required to submit a list of their employees to the Employment Appeal Board (EAB) before recertification votes, where workers in a bargaining unit are asked if they want to continue to be represented by their union before the next contract period. If an employer does not submit a list of their workers to the EAB, the recertification process will not occur and contracts will be negotiated with current union representation.
