What it does
This joint resolution seeks to disapprove a Department of Labor rule concerning the Adverse Effect Wage Rate Methodology for H-2A nonimmigrant workers in non-range occupations. If enacted, it would nullify the rule published in the Federal Register on October 2, 2025, which governs wage standards for temporary agricultural workers. The resolution affects the Employment and Training Administration’s regulatory authority and would prevent the rule from having any legal force or effect. It applies to employers and workers involved in the H-2A visa program for non-range agricultural occupations.
