A federal judge on Tuesday struck down a Trump administration
rule that narrowed the definition of “joint employer,” and which the
attorneys general of 17 states and Washington, D.C. said would eliminate
important labor protections for workers. U.S. District Judge Gregory Woods in
Manhattan said the rule was “arbitrary and capricious” because the Department
of Labor failed to justify it or account for its costs to workers, which the
states estimated at more than $1 billion annually. |
