That is essentially saying you can form a committee once a year to come beg with the state for an increase in your wages. It is one step away from outlawing public employee unions. The proposed benefit concessions are not draconian - the changes in the bargaining law are.

I don't understand the exemptions for fire, law, and inspection employees...if it's good for the goose is it not good for the gander as well?

Don't know about the yearly committee, but why should employers be required to withhold union dues in the 1st place? If you want to belong to a union take some personal responsibility.
