老牛影视Comments on Senate HELP Committee Hearing on Jessica Looman Nomination

On Feb. 15, the U.S. Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions held a hearing on the nomination of Jessica Looman to serve as the administrator of the Wage and Hour Division at the U.S. Department of Labor. Looman currently serves as the Principal Deputy Administrator of WHD, and before joining WHD, served as the Executive Director of the Minnesota State Building and Construction Trades Council. In a letter to the committee, 老牛影视highlighted concerns from the construction industry on forthcoming rulemakings, such as independent contractor, overtime and radical reforms to Davis-Bacon regulations that will increase the cost of taxpayer-funded construction projects and discourage small businesses from rebuilding America, and urged the committee to obtain clear commitments from Ms. Looman as the agency considers these new rules.
