The bill establishes conditions under which employers can qualify for economic development incentives from the state or local government in Alabama. Specifically, it prohibits employers from receiving these incentives if they engage in certain practices related to labor organization representation. These practices include granting recognition rights based solely on signed authorization cards when a secret ballot election is available, disclosing employees' personal contact information to labor organizations without prior written consent, and requiring subcontractors to engage in these prohibited activities. Employers found in violation of these provisions must repay any economic development incentives received for the project in question.

Additionally, the bill outlines definitions for key terms such as "economic development incentive," "employee," "employer," and "labor organization." It also includes exemptions for employers with existing collective bargaining agreements or those that do not directly receive incentives. The Alabama Department of Revenue or the administering agency is granted the authority to investigate potential violations and enforce compliance with the new regulations. The act is set to take effect immediately upon passage.
