This joint resolution would use the Congressional Review Act, a law that lets Congress cancel federal agency rules, to overturn a National Labor Relations Board rule published in October 2023 on when two businesses count as joint employers of the same workers.^2,3 Under that rule, a company could be considered a joint employer of another company's workers if the two share or jointly decide the workers' essential terms and conditions of employment.³ Congress passed the resolution, but the President vetoed it, and the House vote to override the veto fell short of the required two-thirds majority.³
