The Metro Council is moving a non-binding, memorializing resolution urging Jesse Register to re-consider his labor union stance. That has all the force it sounds like it has.

Councilman Bo Mitchell of Bellevue plans on introducing a non-binding memorializing resolution Tuesday that would urge the Metro Nashville Board of Education and Register to comply with provisions outlined in the district’s existing labor negotiation policy, established in 2000.

That labor policy created a precedent of “memoranda of understanding” in dealing with the local chapters of the Service Employees International Union and the United Steelworkers, which represents custodians and bus drivers, respectively. Labor leaders have described the agreement as a “meet and confer” policy.
