Summary of Bill HR 10427

Bill 118 hr 10427, also known as the "Withdraw Proposed Rule on Section 14(c) Certificates Act," aims to require the Secretary of Labor to withdraw a proposed rule regarding certificates issued under section 14(c) of the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1937.

Section 14(c) of the Fair Labor Standards Act allows employers to pay individuals with disabilities less than the federal minimum wage if they are unable to perform the same work as non-disabled employees. The proposed rule in question seeks to eliminate this provision, which has been controversial as some argue it discriminates against individuals with disabilities.

The bill, introduced in the House of Representatives, calls for the withdrawal of this proposed rule, citing concerns about the potential negative impact on individuals with disabilities who rely on these certificates for employment opportunities. Proponents of the bill argue that eliminating section 14(c) certificates could result in fewer job opportunities for individuals with disabilities. The bill has garnered support from both Democrats and Republicans, with bipartisan efforts to ensure that individuals with disabilities are not unfairly impacted by changes to the Fair Labor Standards Act. The future of the bill remains uncertain as it makes its way through the legislative process.
