NAHB Now
In a victory for NAHB, the Department of Labor (DOL) on Nov. 9 agreed to a legal settlement that keeps a permanent injunction in place that stops the “persuader rule” from taking effect and prevents a future administration from seeking to revive the rule.
The Obama-era persuader rule sought to unfairly require lawyers and consultants to report to the DOL when counseling employers concerning union organizing.
The settlement signed by the DOL provides NAHB and its coalition partners peace of mind that the persuader rule cannot be brought again by a future administration, and ends the litigation.
