Providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission relating to "Implementation of the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act".
HJRES 207 is a congressional disapproval resolution targeting an Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) rule implementing the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act. It seeks to block the EEOC's specific guidance (published April 19, 2024) that outlines how employers must provide reasonable accommodations for pregnant workers. If passed, the resolution would make this EEOC rule "have no force or effect," preventing its enforcement. The measure directly affects employers subject to the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act by halting the implementation of the EEOC's regulatory guidance.
