This bill has advanced since we wrote our summary.
Current stage on Congress.gov: Introduced in House.
This is a procedural resolution — a "rule" — that sets the terms for the House to debate and vote on H.R. 5408, a bill to speed up the time it takes for workers and employers to reach a first contract after a union is recognized under the National Labor Relations Act. The rule provides for one hour of debate, waives certain procedural objections, and allows one motion to recommit. It's the kind of housekeeping measure that determines how and when a bill gets to the floor for a vote.
