Bill > HJRes22

This joint resolution aims to disapprove a rule proposed by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) related to immigration visa programs. Specifically, the resolution targets a rule published in the Federal Register that seeks to modernize H-1B visa requirements and provide flexibility in the F-1 student visa program. H-1B visas are work permits that allow skilled foreign workers to temporarily work in the United States, while F-1 visas are for international students studying in the U.S. By passing this resolution, Congress would effectively nullify the DHS rule, preventing it from being implemented, which means the proposed changes to these visa programs would not go into effect. The resolution demonstrates Congress's ability to review and potentially block administrative rules submitted by federal agencies, using its oversight powers to challenge regulatory changes it finds objectionable.
