HB 267 stops the misuse of taxpayer funds, increases transparency, and ensures all public workers have a voice. Don’t sign the referendum—stand for accountability!

Your Tax Dollars Should Serve the Public – Not Union Interests

HB 267 ensures that public resources are used exclusively for government services, not for union activities.

Problem: Currently, taxpayer-funded spaces, equipment, and resources are often used for union business, diverting public funds away from essential services.

Fix: The bill requires unions to follow the same rules as any other group when using public property, ensuring fairness and preventing special privileges at taxpayer expense.

Public Benefits Should Be for Public Employees—Not Union Staff

Problem: Under the current system, some union employees—who do not work for the government—are still receiving taxpayer-funded retirement benefits. These individuals work solely for the union, not for the state or the public.

Fix: HB 267 ensures that only actual public employees receive public benefits, ending a practice that unfairly burdens taxpayers.

Fair Representation for Every Public Worker

PROBLEM: Before HB 267, some public sector unions had exclusive authority to represent workers, meaning individual employees and non-union members had little say in negotiations that directly affected them.

FIX: The bill allows all workers to have a voice, ensuring that no single organization can speak on behalf of everyone without broader input. Unions can still be involved, but they no longer have unchecked control over negotiations.

The Truth About the Referendum

-

This bill doesn’t impact private unions.

-

Special interest groups are misleading the public—know the facts.

-

The referendum seeks to overturn these commonsense reforms, bringing back wasteful spending and union control over taxpayer resources.

-

Very few public sector unions were engaged in collective bargaining – wages and working conditions have already been a priority in Utah without union control.

-

Declining to sign protects taxpayer money, fairness, and accountability in government.
