Comment Period for 'Fair Pay and Safe Workplaces' Extended Again
Client Alert | 1 min read | 08.07.15

On July 15, as previously discussed here, the chairs of the House committees of jurisdiction sent a letter to Labor Secretary Perez and OFPP Administrator Rung citing procedural and substantive flaws with the rulemaking (explained in more detail on our Government Contracts blog) and requesting that the agencies withdraw it, or, at a minimum, extend the public comment period an additional 90 days.
