Plain-language change summary

The key changes in Bill HB 85 involve clarifying the state's role regarding union membership requirements in the workplace. The amended version emphasizes that only the state can prohibit or enforce agreements that make union membership a condition of employment, preventing local governments from imposing their own regulations. This matters because it centralizes authority at the state level, potentially making it easier for unions to require membership, which could affect employees' job security and workplace rights across New Mexico.
