ABC Sues To Block DOL Contractor Rules

摘要

The Associated Builders and Contractors has filed a lawsuit that aims to halt Dept. of Labor final rules for federal contractors in hiring veterans and people with disabilities. ABC's lawsuit, filed on Nov. 19 in federal district court in Washington, D.C., seeks to enjoin parts of the rules, which are to take effect March 24. Geoff Burr, ABC vice president of federal affairs, said the agency exceeded its authority and set "wasteful and burdensome" requirements in collecting data and keeping records.
