2025AB 788

Another Union Contract Windfall at UW-Madison

2025 - Wisconsin Senate

Conservatives Oppose

Description

This bill ratifies a 2025-26 collective bargaining agreement between UW-Madison and the building trades crafts union, authorizing increased expenditures on those workers. It continues the pattern of granting generous union deals inside a university already awash in administrative bloat and ideological programming. CPAC opposes public-sector union agreements that ratchet up spending without reforms and opposed this bill. The House passed this bill on 2026-01-13 by a vote of 99-0. The bill later became law.
