On the latest episode of The Legislature Today, Speaker Tim Armstead discusses two bills union members across the state are speaking out against: Right-to-Work and a repeal of the state’s prevailing wage. Both are measures the Republican supports.
In the House, that prevailing wage bill is heading toward a vote by the full body after members of the Committee on Government Organization approved the bill Wednesday. A repeal was also proposed during the 2015 session, but members of the Legislature instead passed a bill to recalculate the wage.
