Bill Summary

Providing for consideration of the bill (H.B. 1230) to amend the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 and other laws to clarify appropriate standards for Federal employment discrimination and retaliation claims, and for other purposes; providing for consideration of the joint resolution (H.J. Res. 76) providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Department of Education relating to "Borrower Defense Institutional Accountability"; and providing for proceedings during the period from January 17, 2020, through January 24, 2020. This resolution sets forth the rule for consideration of H.B. 1230 (Protecting Older Workers Against Discrimination Act) and H.J.Res. 76 (nullifying a certain rule issued by the Department of Education that revised, among other things, the process for a student loan borrower to obtain a discharge from a student loan if an institution of education misrepresented a material fact). Certain proceedings may take place on any legislative day from January 17, 2020, through January 24, 2020.

AI Summary

This Resolution establishes the rules for considering two important pieces of legislation in the House of Representatives: H.B. 1230, which aims to update the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 and other laws to clarify standards for federal employment discrimination and retaliation claims, and H.J. Res. 76, a joint resolution of congressional disapproval that seeks to overturn a rule from the Department of Education concerning "Borrower Defense Institutional Accountability," a process that allows student loan borrowers to seek relief if their educational institution made misrepresentations. The resolution outlines specific procedures for debate and amendment for both of these measures, waiving certain procedural objections to ensure their consideration, and also sets forth provisions for legislative proceedings during the period of January 17-24, 2020, including how the House will conduct its business and adjourn during that time.
