Faster Labor Contracts Act

Summary

The bill amends the National Labor Relations Act to require employers and newly recognized labor unions to begin bargaining within 10 days of a written request and to work toward a contract quickly. If no agreement is reached within 90 days, the parties must request mediation, and if mediation fails, a three‑person arbitration panel will issue a binding decision for two years. It also directs the GAO to report on the average time it takes to reach an initial contract after certification.
