Providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the final rule of the Department of Labor relating to "Rescission of Implementing Legal Requirements Regarding the Equal Opportunity Clause's Religious Exemption Rule".

HJRES 61 is a resolution seeking to block a Department of Labor rule published in March 2023. The rule would have removed legal requirements related to religious exemptions under the Equal Opportunity Clause in federal employment regulations. If passed, this resolution would prevent the rule from taking effect, maintaining the existing requirements for religious exemptions. It uses a specific congressional disapproval process under Title 5 of the U.S. Code to stop the rule without requiring presidential action.
