HJRES 134 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 "Improving Protections for Workers in Temporary Agricultural Employment in the United States".

HJRES 134 is a joint resolution seeking congressional disapproval of a Department of Labor rule titled "Improving Protections for Workers in Temporary Agricultural Employment." The bill targets the specific rule published in the Federal Register (89 Fed. Reg. 33898, April 29, 2024) that aimed to strengthen worker protections for temporary agricultural employees. If passed, this resolution would block the rule from taking effect, preventing the Department of Labor's new regulations from being implemented. The measure directly affects the rule's implementation, not the workers or employers it was designed to protect.
