Unless Congress acts, chain-restaurant workers and local entrepreneurs, among many others, will be losing jobs and opportunities. The cause is an Obama-era labor rule known as the “joint employer standard.”

Ben Gitis of the American Action Forum was absolutely on target in his op-ed today explaining the harm that this rule causes. As I wrote here on the same subject in June, the Obama rule applies burdensome labor laws and liabilities directly even to businesses who exert only indirect oversight of workers covered by those laws.
