Endorsement Transparency Act

This legislative proposal seeks to amend the Labor-Management Reporting and Disclosure Act of 1959. Its primary objective is to require labor organizations to conduct a poll of their members regarding any potential endorsement of a candidate for the office of President of the United States. Furthermore, the bill stipulates that unions must publicly disclose the results of such polls to their members before making an endorsement. These new requirements would take effect 12 months after the bill's enactment, aiming to foster greater transparency and member input in union political activities.
