Bill > HRes988

This resolution provides for the consideration of several bills in the House of Representatives, essentially setting the rules for debate and voting on them. Specifically, it allows for the consideration of H.R. 2988, which amends the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) concerning how retirement plans consider financial (pecuniary) and non-financial (non-pecuniary) factors, and H.R. 2262, which amends the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 (FLSA) to exclude certain activities from being counted as "hours worked" for wage and overtime purposes. Additionally, it allows for the consideration of three other bills under the FLSA and the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA): H.R. 2270, which would exclude child and dependent care services and payments from overtime calculations; H.R. 2312, which would revise the definition of a "tipped employee" under the FLSA; and H.R. 4366, which clarifies the definition of "joint employers" under both the NLRA and FLSA, meaning when two or more businesses are considered a single employer for labor law purposes. For each of these bills, the resolution waives most procedural objections, deems certain committee-approved amendments as adopted, limits debate, and allows for one motion to recommit before a final vote.
