Providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Department of Labor relating to the Adverse Effect Wage Rate.

Summary

The resolution tells the Department of Labor that its new rule setting the Adverse Effect Wage Rate for temporary H‑2A agricultural workers is disapproved and will have no legal effect. This removes the rule that employers would have used to calculate wages for H‑2A workers, affecting both the workers and the farms that hire them. The action shows congressional opposition to the rule’s methodology.
