Senate Bill No. 2330 aims to amend existing laws regarding payroll deductions for certain state and local government employee organizations, specifically focusing on law enforcement officers, fire protection personnel, and emergency medical services personnel. The bill introduces a new section in the Education Code that allows school district employees who are licensed law enforcement officers to have membership fees or dues deducted from their salaries, provided they submit a written request to the district. Additionally, the bill modifies the definition of "eligible state employee organization" to include organizations with a majority of members who are law enforcement officers, fire protection personnel, or emergency medical services personnel, and removes the previous requirement for a minimum membership of 4,000 state employees.

Furthermore, the bill establishes a prohibition on the collection of dues for labor organizations, with specific exceptions for certain state and local government entities. It amends various sections of the Government and Local Government Codes to clarify the conditions under which payroll deductions can be made, particularly emphasizing that deductions for labor organization dues are generally not permitted unless specified by the bill. The legislation also repeals certain existing provisions that are now deemed unnecessary. The bill is set to take effect on September 1, 2025.
