HJRES 103 United States House · 118th Congress

Providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Department of Labor relating to "Updating the Davis-Bacon and Related Acts Regulation".

HJRES 103 is a congressional resolution seeking to block a Department of Labor rule updating the Davis-Bacon Act regulations. It specifically targets the rule published in the Federal Register on August 23, 2023 (88 Fed. Reg. 57526), which would have modified requirements for paying prevailing wages on federal construction projects. The resolution invokes Chapter 8 of Title 5, U.S. Code, to formally disapprove the rule, stating it "shall have no force or effect" if passed. This procedural measure directly affects federal contractors and the Department of Labor, aiming to prevent the implementation of the updated wage regulations.
