Currently, police unions are allowed to collectively bargain with government officials over the methods used to hold police officers accountable for misconduct. Proponents argue that collective bargaining stands in the way of accountability. Opponents of limiting collective bargaining argue that more intense criticism of police will disincentivize officers from doing their jobs resulting in crime rates going up.

Yes, and abolish all public sector unions.
@8R9N4QL4yrs4Y
Abolish all public sector unions
@9V64GT7Republican8mos8MO
Maybe but it depends, someone needs to be able to receive defense and context from individuals that have faced similar situations
@9ND8RVVIndependent12mos12MO
Yes, but abolish all public sector unions. If you work for the public, you should not be able to collective bargain against us. We are the taxpayers, and you are public SERVANTS. If you don't like your job, quit. That's the greatest indication to the public what we must provide to our public servants.
@9L3X38T1yr1Y
I would support the abolishment of unions in general because it is considered a violation of the liberty rights and instead gives power to Big government and gives more government control.
@9FCKM4B2yrs2Y
No this is protected by the fifth amendment
@9DBD4K8Libertarian2yrs2Y
I need to learn more to opine
@8QKRQFQRepublican4yrs4Y
Yes, but only for cases involving misconduct
@9FQ9PNS2yrs2Y
I don’t think I understand this one.
@939NDZ43yrs3Y
This question does not make sense. Collective bargaining is to negotiate contracts. An officer accused of misconduct is certainly entitled to union and legal representation.

Unions are sacred. Reform the police instead

No, as police can commit crimes too.

Yes, and abolish or reform police unions, by having the public involve in choosing the police unions leadership.
