Senate Bill 5 Forum

Special Forum for Board Members by Invitation Only

Please Join Us for a Discussion About Senate Bill 5

Throughout the debate and discussion surrounding Senate Bill 5, interest has grown about this important legislation and what it means to the business community. It contains sweeping reforms that focus on collective bargaining for public sector employees and will change the ways in which local governments, school districts, and other public entities conduct business and serve their constituents. With calls for a November referendum and the possibility that some of the provisions in Senate Bill 5 will be amended into the state’s operating budget, it is important that we understand this legislation and its impact on our future. We hope you can join us for this important discussion.
