Providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Department of Labor relating to "Definition of 'Employer'-Association Health Plans".
HJRES 181 is a congressional resolution seeking to block a Department of Labor rule that defined "Employer-Association Health Plans." The bill would prevent this specific rule - published in the Federal Register on April 30, 2024 - from taking effect. It directly affects employers and health plan administrators who use these association-based health coverage models. If passed, the rule would have no legal force, reversing the Labor Department's regulatory definition.
