Bill Summary
Disapproving of the rule submitted by the Department of Homeland Security relating to "Increase of the Automatic Extension Period of Employment Authorization and Documentation for Certain Employment Authorization Document Renewal Applicants".
AI Summary
This resolution disapproves a rule issued by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) regarding the automatic extension of employment authorization documents (EAD) for certain applicants seeking to renew their work permits. Specifically, the resolution nullifies the DHS rule published in the Federal Register (89 Fed. Reg. 101208) that would have increased the automatic extension period for employment authorization documentation. By passing this resolution, Congress is effectively blocking the implementation of the DHS rule, meaning the rule will have no legal force or effect. The resolution reflects congressional oversight of administrative rulemaking, allowing legislators to challenge and potentially invalidate regulatory actions they believe are inappropriate or exceed the agency's authority.
