Disapproving of the rule submitted by the Department of Homeland Security relating to "Increase of the Automatic Extension Period of Employment Authorization and Documentation for Certain Employment Authorization Document Renewal Applicants".
HJRES 23 is a congressional resolution disapproving a specific rule issued by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). The rule in question would have extended the automatic period allowing certain immigrants to continue working while renewing their employment authorization documents. This resolution, if passed, would cancel that DHS rule, meaning the extension period would not apply to immigrants renewing their work permits. It directly affects non-citizens in the U.S. who are waiting for their work permit renewals to be processed.
