Many employers struggle to comply with federal regulations issued by the DOL, NLRB, or the EEOC, especially when agency positions change. Last month, the Supreme Court overruled Chevron, USA Inc. v. Natural Resources Defense Council. Because of this decision, courts will now give statues their "best" interpretation, meaning agencies will have less leeway to write broad rules. Instead, they will have to write rules that are closer to statutory language. They may also have to defend some existing rules against closer scrutiny in court. And that closer scrutiny could upset some recently adopted or proposed rules, such as rules on overtime, safety inspections, and independent contracting.

 Last week, HCAOA CEO Jason Lee provided an update on HCAOA’s efforts around the CMS 80/20 rule during the Home Care Industry Update hosted by Polsinelli. Lee provided an overview of the recent CMS meeting, emphasizing the discussions were collaborative and ongoing advocacy against the 80/20 provision, highlighting HCAOA’s active H.R.8114 letter of support in removing the 80/20 provision.
