This bill changes the Labor-Management Reporting and Disclosure Act (LMRDA). It adds "a sex offense against a minor" to the list of offenses in Section 504(a) that can bar a person from holding certain union positions. The bill also makes a small technical punctuation change in the same section. The new rules would take effect 30 days after the bill becomes law. The bill was introduced by Representative Joe Wilson on May 12, 2026.
If you are a union member or leader, the bill would mean that people convicted of sex offenses against minors could not serve in specified union offices covered by Section 504(a) of the LMRDA. The text of the bill does not provide details beyond adding that conviction to the list of disqualifying offenses. The prohibition starts 30 days after the bill becomes law.
