This chapter does not prohibit a governmental unit from awarding a contract, grant, tax abatement, or tax credit to a private owner, bidder, contractor, or subcontractor that enters, is a party to, or adheres to an agreement with a labor organization, if: a. Being or becoming a party or adhering to an agreement with a labor organization is not a condition for the award of the contract, grant, tax abatement, or tax credit; and b. The governmental unit does not discriminate against a private owner, bidder, contractor, or subcontractor in the awarding of that contract, grant, tax abatement, or tax credit based upon the status as being or becoming, or the willingness or refusal to become, a party to an agreement with a labor organization. 3.
