This joint resolution aims to exercise congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, to reject a specific rule issued by the Department of Labor. The rule in question pertains to the Adverse Effect Wage Rate Methodology , which governs the wages paid to H-2A nonimmigrant workers in non-range occupations. Congress intends to prevent this particular regulation from taking effect, thereby maintaining the existing wage rate methodology or requiring a different approach. By disapproving this rule, Congress would effectively declare it to have no force or effect , preventing its implementation. This action directly impacts the Department of Labor's authority to set wage standards for temporary agricultural workers under the H-2A visa program. The resolution highlights a legislative intent to override executive branch rulemaking on a critical aspect of agricultural labor policy.
