1983609 80409d55-0835-47b3-b0b9-47c14eee3d21 Q2 NATIONAL CLUB ASSOCIATION 27423 NATIONAL CLUB ASSOCIATION 2017 second_quarter LBR NCA lobbied on behalf of HR 2004, the Strengthen Employment and Seasonal Opportunities Now Act, and S 792, the Save Our Small and Seasonal Businesses Act. Each bill would provide further relief for the club industry as it tries to secure temporary seasonal workers through the H-2B visa program. When American workers are unwilling to take on these seasonal positions, clubs will turn to the H-2B program. Without these workers, they are unable to fully staff their facilities. Each bill is still pending. NCA also lobbied for the Simplifying Technical Aspects Regarding Seasonality Act (the bill has not yet been introduced in the 115th Congress). This legislation would remove the two different definitions for seasonal staffers currently found in the Affordable Care Act. By so doing, club leaders would better understand who must be counted when determining if their facility has 50 or more full-time or full-time equivalent employees and who is then required to be offered health insurance under the law. This is a technical corrections bill that may not need to be introduced if the American Health Care Act or the Better Care Reconciliation Act passes both chambers and is signed into law. Finally, NCA is lobbying on behalf of appropriations riders that would remove funding for the enforcement of certain regulations established by the National Labor Relations Board in FY18. These riders would ensure that clubs had the time necessary to prepare for a union election by removing funding for the Ambush Election Rule as well as ensure an appropriate bargaining unit was created before an election is held by removing funding for the Micro-Union Rule.
