Purpose and Summary

Chamber: House

Introduced date: 2023-11-09

Bill 118 hjres 98, also known as the "Providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the National Labor Relations Board relating to 'Standard for Determining Joint Employer Status'", is a piece of legislation that aims to challenge a rule proposed by the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) regarding the standard for determining joint employer status. The NLRB's rule in question pertains to how joint employer status is determined in labor disputes. Joint employer status refers to situations where two or more employers share control over the same group of employees. The NLRB's proposed rule would establish a new standard for determining when a company can be considered a joint employer, potentially impacting how labor disputes are resolved and how workers' rights are protected. Bill 118 hjres 98 seeks to disapprove of this rule under chapter 8 of title 5 of the United States Code, which allows Congress to challenge and potentially overturn regulations issued by federal agencies. By passing this bill, Congress would be expressing its disagreement with the NLRB's proposed rule and preventing it from going into effect. Overall, Bill 118 hjres 98 is a significant piece of legislation that addresses the important issue of joint employer status and the impact it has on labor relations in the United States. It reflects Congress's role in overseeing and regulating federal agency actions to ensure that they align with the best interests of the American people.
