President of the Connecticut State Employees Association, SEIU Local 2001; labor leader advocating worker safeguards for AI in employment decisions.
AI is already being used in hiring. SB 86 should explicitly require transparency when AI systems materially impact employment decisions, and it must guarantee workers the right to explanation and human review.
