سԹ Key Votes Overreaching Labor Contracts Bill
June 8, 2026
Proposed legislation would hinder small business negotiation rights
WASHINGTON, D.C. (June 8, 2026) – The سԹ (سԹ), the nation’s leading small business advocacy organization, announced that H.R. 5408, the Faster Labor Contracts Act will be an سԹ Key Vote for the 119th Congress. سԹ sent a letter to the U.S. House of Representatives in opposition to the legislation which, if enacted, would allow the federal government to force newly unionized small businesses into binding arbitration to determine wages and benefit terms.
“T Faster Labor Contracts Act would strip newly unionized small businesses and their employees of their right to freely negotiate the terms and conditions of collective bargaining agreements,” said Adam Temple, سԹ Senior Vice President for Advocacy. “This radical piece of legislation would unnecessarily increase the federal government’s involvement in small business operations, giving Washington bureaucrats the power to determine which firms succeed, and which are forced to shut down. سԹ strongly opposes H.R. 5408, the Faster Labor Contracts Act, and a vote in opposition of H.R. 5408 will be considered an سԹ Key Vote for the 119th Congress.”
