Under the "Equal Access to Intrastate Commerce Act," local governments are prohibited from adopting certain ordinances that would impede intrastate commerce. This bill adds that the general assembly preempts and occupies the entire field of regulating the terms and conditions of employment. Unless expressly provided for by state law, a local government and any agency, department, or official of a local government is prohibited from adopting or enforcing an ordinance, resolution, rule, code, requirement, or policy that requires a term or condition of employment that exceeds or conflicts with the law of this state or federal law. However, this provision does not apply with respect to employees of a local government.
