What it does
The PRO–WORK Act would prohibit employers from receiving federal funds or tax credits during a lockout of employees and for a specified period afterward, requiring reimbursement of any improperly used funds. It applies to employers engaged in lockouts, defining a lockout period as any time during which an employer locks out employees, and extends the funding ban for an additional period equal to the lockout duration or one year, depending on prior history. The bill also denies tax credits to corporations involved in lockouts during a taxable year, with rules for aggregation and regulatory guidance, effective for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2025.
