Save Local Business Act
Introduced Jul 14, 2025 by Rep. James Comer
It's waiting on a committee vote to reach the full chamber. Most bills never leave this stage.
This bill provides that a person may be considered a joint employer of the employees of another employer under federal labor law only if such person directly, actually, and immediately exercises significant control over the essential terms and conditions of employment. Such control may by demonstrated by hiring and discharging employees; determining individual employee rates of pay and benefits; day-to-day supervision of employees; assigning individual work schedules, positions, or tasks; or administering employee discipline.
