Bill Analysis
Bill Summary: HRES 947 (118th Congress)
HRES 947 is a resolution that outlines the procedural framework for the consideration of three significant legislative actions in the U.S. House of Representatives. Specifically, it provides for the consideration of H.R. 788, which aims to limit donations made pursuant to settlement agreements involving the United States, and two joint resolutions (H.J. Res. 98 and S.J. Res. 38) that seek congressional disapproval of specific regulatory rules.
H.R. 788: This bill proposes restrictions on the ability of federal agencies to make donations as part of settlement agreements. The intent is to ensure that taxpayer funds are not used inappropriately in settlements, promoting transparency and accountability in government financial dealings.
H.J. Res. 98: This joint resolution targets a rule from the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) concerning the “Standard for Determining Joint Employer Status.” If disapproved, it would prevent the NLRB’s rule from taking effect, impacting how joint employer status is defined and enforced, which affects labor relations and employer responsibilities.
S.J. Res. 38: This resolution addresses a rule from the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) that allows for waivers of Buy America requirements for electric vehicle chargers. Congressional disapproval would reinstate strict adherence to domestic sourcing requirements, influencing the procurement policies for infrastructure projects related to electric vehicles.
Funding/Authorities: The resolution does not allocate funding but sets the stage for debate and voting on the aforementioned bills and resolutions.
Beneficiaries/Regulations: The resolution primarily affects federal agencies, labor organizations, employers, and the electric vehicle infrastructure sector. It is designed to enhance accountability in federal settlements and influence labor and procurement policies.
Key Timelines: The resolution was agreed upon by a recorded vote of 211-202 on January 10, 2024, facilitating the legislative process for the bills and resolutions it addresses.
