proposal ratifies the collective bargaining contract for state employees in the law
enforcement collective bargaining unit negotiated for the 2007-09 biennium under
the State Employment Labor Relations Act. Currently, statutory program
supplement appropriations fund the costs of collective bargaining agreements to the
extent that they exceed budgeted costs. The proposal authorizes expenditure of
moneys from those appropriations to fund the cost of this agreement.
