Oregonian: Oregon Senate passes pro-public employees union bill

The Oregonian reports via OregonLive that the Oregon Senate has passed, along party lines, a bill that would make it easier for public employee unions to organize in a post-Janus climate.

The bill mandates employers give reasonable time off for union business, makes it easier for employees to opt-into their union, give unions the ability to determine proper employee conduct at union meetings, and mandates the sharing of employee contact information between the employer and the union.
