Summary of Bill HR 2237
Bill 119 HR 2237, also known as the "H-2A Program Reporting Act," aims to direct the Comptroller General of the United States to conduct a comprehensive report on the H-2A program.

The report will also evaluate the oversight and enforcement mechanisms in place to prevent fraud and abuse within the H-2A program, as well as the extent to which the program is meeting its intended goals of providing a legal and reliable source of labor for the agricultural industry. Overall, the purpose of Bill 119 HR 2237 is to provide Congress with a comprehensive analysis of the H-2A program in order to inform potential legislative changes or improvements to the program in the future.
