The House Education and the Workforce Committee voted 21-13 along party lines to advance H. J. Res. 116, a Congressional Review Act resolution to nullify the Department of Labor’s SWACCA-supported independent contractor final rule. The rule makes it harder for employers to misclassify their workers as independent contractors. SWACCA has been advocating against congressional efforts to overturn the important rulemaking, including sending letters to the House and Senate opposing the CRA efforts. H.J. Res. 116 now heads to the House floor for consideration.
