Providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Department of Labor relating to "Short-Term, Limited-Duration Insurance and Independent, Noncoordinated Excepted Benefits Coverage".

HJRES 137 is a congressional resolution seeking to disapprove a Department of Labor rule (89 Fed. Reg. 23338, April 3, 2024) that established standards for short-term, limited-duration health insurance plans and certain noncoordinated health benefits. If passed, this resolution would nullify the rule, preventing it from taking effect. The rule directly affects health insurers offering temporary coverage plans (typically lasting less than 365 days) and employers providing specific non-ACA-compliant health benefits, as it set federal requirements for these products. The resolution uses a statutory process (Chapter 8 of Title 5, U.S. Code) to block the rule without altering existing health insurance laws.
