BILL NUMBER: SB 977 INTRODUCED BILL TEXT INTRODUCED BY Senator Yee JANUARY 23, 2012 An act relating to state employees. LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST SB 977, as introduced, Yee. State employees: memoranda of understanding: State Bargaining Units 16 and 19. Under existing law, a provision of a memorandum of understanding reached between the state employer and a recognized employee organization representing state civil service employees that requires the expenditure of funds does not become effective unless approved by the Legislature in the annual Budget Act. This bill would approve provisions of memoranda of understanding entered into between the state employer and State Bargaining Unit 16 (Physicians, Dentists and Podiatrists) and State Bargaining Unit 19 (Health and Social Services/Professional) that require the expenditure of funds, and would provide that these provisions will become effective even if these provisions are approved by the Legislature in legislation other than the annual Budget Act. The bill would provide that provisions of the memoranda of understanding approved by this bill that require the expenditure of funds will not take effect unless funds for those provisions are specifically appropriated by the Legislature, and would require the state employer and the affected employee organization to meet and confer to renegotiate the affected provisions if funds for those provisions are not specifically appropriated by the Legislature. Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: yes. State-mandated local program: no. THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS: SECTION 1.
