Protect the Future of Collective Bargaining in Virginia!

The Situation

The General Assembly passed HB 1263 and SB 378, a historic step forward for the rights of teachers, school staff, and public employees. When lawmakers reconvened on April 22nd, they declined to agree to proposed changes to the legislation, sending the bills back to the Governor in their original, stronger form.

What’s at Stake

The bills now await the Governor’s signature. Signing the legislation will ensure that collective bargaining rights are firmly established in state law, providing stability, accountability, and long-term protection for workers across Virginia.

Our Goal

We need the Governor to sign HB 1263 and SB 378 as originally passed. This is the final step to securing a durable framework that reflects the will of the General Assembly and the voices of Virginia’s public sector employees. We need to send a clear message: Stand by Virginia’s workers.
