NCAE Lauds Suspension of Farmworker Protection Rule
The organization says the Department of Labor suspended enforcement of the rule following legal challenges.
The National Council of Agricultural Employers (NCAE) says it is celebrating the Department of Labor’s decision to suspend the Improving Protections for Workers in Temporary Agriculture Employment in the United States rule, commonly known as the Farmworker Protection Rule.
When it published the rule in 2024, the Labor Department said the rule strengthened protections for temporary agricultural workers through several changes to the H-2A program regulations.
NCAE says this latest announcement comes following legal action by the organization and others pertaining to parts of the rule.
