A concurrent resolution adopted by the Legislature\n     of the State of Louisiana urging the United States Congress\n     to modify the H-2A nonimmigrant visa program to address the\n     untenable increases in wage rates resulting from the United\n     States Department of Labor's policies that create an undue\n     and unsustainable financial burden on Louisiana farmers, who\n     rely on an affordable, readily available H-2A workforce; to\n     the Committee on Agriculture, Nutrition, and Forestry.\n\n                  Senate Concurrent Resolution No. 14\n\n       Whereas, Section 218 of the Immigration and Nationality Act\n     authorizes the lawful admission into the United States of\n     temporary, nonimmigrant workers to perform agricultural labor\n     or services of a temporary or seasonal nature; and\n       Whereas, according to the United States Department of Labor\n     (DOL), under the H-2A program, employment is subject to\n     robust immigration and occupational health and safety\n     oversight; and\n       Whereas, in order to qualify for H-2A visa classification,\n     employers must show that there are not enough United States\n     workers\n\n[[Page S4900]]\n\n     who are qualified, able, willing, and available to do the\n     temporary work; and\n       Whereas, in order for the DOL to certify that there are not\n     sufficient American workers available to perform the labor,\n     and that the employment of foreign workers will not have an\n     adverse effect on the wages and working conditions of\n     similarly employed United States workers, employers must\n     demonstrate the need for a specific number of H-2A workers;\n     and\n       Whereas, the DOL enforces Congress' mandate that H-2A\n     workers' employment should not negatively impact the wages\n     and conditions of American workers through the Adverse Effect\n     Wage Rate (AEWR); and\n       Whereas, costs associated with hiring an H-2A worker\n     include not only wages, but also housing, transportation, and\n     other benefits mandated by the program; and\n       Whereas, the United States Department of Agriculture\n     reports that the cost of housing for an H-2A worker can cost\n     the employer approximately $9,000 to $13,000 per worker; and\n       Whereas, under the Final Rule issued in February 2023,\n     DOL's methodology for determining the AEWR has become\n     increasingly complex, requiring any H-2A worker performing\n     duties outside the six Standard Occupation Classifications\n     (SOCs) included in the Farm Labor Survey (FLS) to be paid\n     based on the Bureau of Labor Statistics' Occupational\n     Employment and Wage Statistics (OEWS) mean hourly wage for\n     general economic conditions, regardless of how often they\n     perform that job; and\n       Whereas, the OEWS does not survey agricultural workers,\n     leading to inflated labor costs due to nonrelated industries,\n     which have significant differences in qualifications and\n     requirements; and\n       Whereas, an employer seeking to employ foreign workers\n     under the H-2A program is required to offer, advertise in its\n     recruitment, and pay a wage that is at least equal to the\n     AEWR when it is the highest applicable wage rate among the\n     wage sources applicable to the employer's job opportunity;\n     and\n       Whereas, for nonrange occupations, the wage offered and\n     paid must equal or exceed the hourly AEWR, the prevailing\n     wage rate, the federal minimum wage, the state minimum wage,\n     or the agreed-upon collective bargaining rate, whichever is\n     highest; and\n       Whereas, the 2025 AEWR for nonrange agricultural workers in\n     Louisiana is $14.83 per hour, which is a staggering twenty-\n     five percent increase over the last five years; and\n       Whereas, labor-intensive industries, including specialty\n     crop growers, have been some of the hardest hit by the AEWR,\n     with these growers spending nearly forty percent of their\n     total cash expenses on labor alone; and\n       Whereas, the current AEWR system imposes significant\n     financial burdens on farm employers, threatening the\n     viability of agricultural operations and contributing to\n     increased consumer prices; and\n       Whereas, the availability of affordable agricultural labor\n     is essential for the sustainability and competitiveness of\n     U.S. agriculture.\n       Therefore, be it\n       Resolved, That the Legislature of Louisiana does hereby\n     memorialize the United States Congress to take such actions\n     as are necessary to make agricultural labor more affordable\n     and readily available for all producers, and reduce the\n     regulatory compliance burden associated with maintaining an\n     agricultural labor force.\n       Resolved, That the Legislature of Louisiana does hereby\n     memorialize the United States Congress to take such actions\n     as to rescind the current Adverse Effect Wage Rate and pause\n     wages paid to H-2A workers at the January 2023 wage rates.\n       Resolved, That the Legislature of Louisiana does hereby\n     memorialize the United States Congress to take such actions\n     as are necessary to mandate that all wage obligations paid by\n     farmers to employees hired under the H-2 A nonimmigrant visas\n     be derived solely from the Farm Labor Survey.\n       Resolved, That the H-2A program is indispensable for\n     American farming and it is imperative to implement measures\n     that mitigate the financial strain on farmers, and aligning\n     wage obligations with the Farm Labor Survey is a practical\n     step towards achieving this goal, ensuring that American\n     agriculture remains competitive and sustainable in the global\n     market.\n       Resolved, That a copy of this Resolution be transmitted to\n     the secretary of the United States Senate and the clerk of\n     the United States House of Representatives and to each member\n     of the Louisiana congressional delegation.\n                                  ____\n\n       POM-10. A concurrent resolution adopted by the Legislature\n     of the State of Louisiana urging thg United States Congress\n     to avoid cuts to the federal Medicaid program and to\n     recognize the vital importance of Medicaid in maintaining the\n     health, stability, and economic well-being of Louisiana\n     residents and the broader healthcare system; to the Committee\n     on Finance.\n\n                  Senate Concurrent Resolution No. 32\n\n       Whereas, Medicaid is a critical lifeline for over 1.6\n     million Louisianians, including children, pregnant women,\n     seniors, people with disabilities, and working families with\n     low incomes; and\n       Whereas, nearly seventy percent of nursing home residents\n     in Louisiana rely on Medicaid to cover their long-term care\n     needs; and\n       Whereas, over half of all births in the state are covered\n     by Medicaid; and\n       Whereas, Louisiana has made thoughtful, state-tailored\n     decisions about how to administer Medicaid, with bipartisan\n     support and in partnership with federal agencies, to ensure\n     the program delivers essential health services efficiently\n     and effectively; and\n       Whereas, the Medicaid program supports the stability of\n     Louisiana's healthcare infrastructure, especially in rural\n     areas, by reimbursing hospitals, community health centers,\n     and other providers, including private providers for\n     preventive care, emergency services, prenatal and postnatal\n     care, and other critical medical services; and\n       Whereas, cuts to Medicaid at the federal level would\n     disproportionately impact populations in Louisiana who have\n     no alternative source of care, exacerbating existing poor\n     health outcomes and potentially leading to worse outcomes,\n     especially in rural communities; and\n       Whereas, reductions in Medicaid funding would shift the\n     burden of uncompensated care onto hospitals and providers,\n     many of which already operate under significant financial\n     constraints, particularly in rural parishes; and\n       Whereas, uncompensated care ultimately results in higher\n     private insurance premiums and costs for all Louisianians and\n     weakens the broader health care delivery system; and\n       Whereas, if changes to Medicaid are considered to ensure\n     long-term sustainability, they should be targeted, evidence-\n     based, and developed in consultation with states and\n     stakeholders to protect access to essential services; and\n       Whereas, additional restrictions that may harm caregivers,\n     individuals with undiagnosed or untreated disabilities, or\n     those facing significant life challenges should be avoided;\n     and\n       Whereas, the Louisiana Legislature affirms its commitment\n     to safeguarding the health of all residents and recognizes\n     that Medicaid is foundational to this mission. Therefore, be\n     it\n       Resolved, That the Legislature of Louisiana does hereby\n     memorialize the Congress of the United States to oppose\n     sweeping or indiscriminate cuts to Medicaid and to instead\n     work in partnership with states to strengthen and preserve\n     the program for the future; and be it further\n       Resolved, That a copy of this Resolution shall be\n     transmitted to the secretary of the United States Senate, the\n     clerk of the United States House of Representatives, each\n     member of the Louisiana delegation to the United States\n     Congress, and the secretary of the United States Department\n     of Health and Human Services.\n                                  ____\n\n       POM-11. A concurrent resolution adopted by the Legislature\n     of the State of Louisiana urging the United States Congress\n     to investigate geoengineering in Louisiana; to the Committee\n     on Commerce, Science, and Transportation.\n\n                  Senate Concurrent Resolution No. 67\n\n       Whereas, it is a matter of public health, environmental\n     safety, and state interest that the quality of air, soil, and\n     water in Louisiana be protected and preserved for the well-\n     being of current and future generations; and\n       Whereas, evidence exists that the federal government, as\n     well as private and academic entities acting on its behalf or\n     at its request, may have conducted or may currently be\n     conducting atmospheric geoengineering experiments involving\n     the intentional dispersion of chemicals into the atmosphere;\n     and\n       Whereas, geoengineering may involve the intentional\n     manipulation of weather and climate for purposes including\n     but not limited to increasing rainfall, reducing solar\n     radiation, and removing carbon dioxide; and\n       Whereas, such activities may occur within the airspace over\n     the state of Louisiana, contributing to visible phenomena\n     which have been observed by the public and are distinct from\n     ordinary contrails generated by commercial aircraft; and\n       Whereas, the scientific and health impacts of these\n     geoengineering efforts, particularly those resulting in\n     visible atmospheric trails, remain poorly understood, and\n     there is growing concern among the public regarding potential\n     risks to environmental quality and human health; and\n       Whereas, the United States government retains exclusive\n     sovereignty over the airspace of the United States under\n     federal law, and it is imperative that any activity conducted\n     in this airspace, and particularly activities involving\n     chemical dispersal, be subject to public scrutiny,\n     transparency, and federal oversight; and\n       Whereas, the people of Louisiana have a right to be\n     informed about any such activities occurring above their\n     communities, and the state has a duty to act in the interest\n     of public health, safety, and environmental integrity.\n       Therefore, be it\n       Resolved, That the Legislature of Louisiana does hereby\n     memorialize the Congress of the United States to conduct a\n     full, transparent, and independent investigation into all\n     activities involving the intentional dispersion of chemicals\n     into the atmosphere by any means, for geoengineering purposes\n     including but not limited to solar radiation modification,\n     carbon dioxide removal, and weather modification experiments,\n     particularly those which may have occurred without public\n     knowledge or consent and within the airspace over the state\n     of Louisiana.\n       Resolved, That such investigation should seek to determine\n     the substances being dispersed, the entities responsible, the\n     stated\n\n[[Page S4901]]\n\n     purposes of such activities, and the potential effects of\n     such dispersion on air, soil, and water quality, as well as\n     on human and ecological health.\n       Resolved, That a copy of this Resolution shall be\n     transmitted to the president of the United States, the\n     secretary of the United States Department of Health and Human\n     Services, the clerk of the United States House of\n     Representatives, the secretary of the United States Senate,\n     each member of the Louisiana congressional delegation, the\n     Senate president, the speaker of the House of\n     Representatives, the governor of Louisiana, and the attorney\n     general of Louisiana.\n                                  ____\n\n       POM-12. A concurrent resolution adopted by the Legislature\n     of the State of Louisiana urging the United States Congress\n     to take action relative to the corporate practice of\n     medicine; to the Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and\n     Pensions.\n\n                  Senate Concurrent Resolution No. 27\n\n       Whereas, the corporate practice of medicine refers to the\n     practice of medicine by entities, such as corporations, that\n     are not composed entirely of licensed healthcare\n     professionals and may employ healthcare professionals to\n     provide medical services in a manner that may be contrary to\n     ethical, legal, and professional standards; and\n       Whereas, the corporate practice of medicine can undermine\n     the independence of healthcare professionals by subjecting\n     them to commercial pressures, potentially compromising the\n     quality of patient care and the integrity of medical\n     decision-making; and\n       Whereas, there is growing concern that corporate entities\n     may prioritize profit over patient care, leading to practices\n     such as limiting time for patient consultations, directing\n     healthcare professionals to meet arbitrary financial targets,\n     and engaging in cost-cutting measures that may impact the\n     standard of care; and\n       Whereas, Louisiana is committed to maintaining a high\n     standard of medical practice that ensures patients receive\n     the highest quality care and that medical professionals are\n     able to exercise their clinical judgment in the best interest\n     of their patients; and\n       Whereas, the Louisiana Legislature has consistently\n     prioritized the protection of public health and the rights of\n     patients, including through the regulation of medical\n     professionals and the licensing of healthcare entities; and\n       Whereas, it is critical that both state and federal\n     governments address the potential risks posed by the\n     corporate practice of medicine to safeguard the doctor-\n     patient relationship and preserve the ethical integrity of\n     medical practice; and\n       Whereas, Congress has the authority to enact federal\n     legislation that would protect patients and healthcare\n     professionals by regulating or limiting the corporate\n     practice of medicine and ensuring that medical professionals\n     are not unduly influenced by corporate interests.\n       Therefore, be it\n       Resolved, That the Legislature of Louisiana does hereby\n     memorialize the Congress of the United States to thoroughly\n     examine the impact of corporate practices on the healthcare\n     workforce and on healthcare delivery and to support a robust,\n     patient-centered healthcare system by ensuring the following:\n       (1) The independence of healthcare professionals is\n     preserved and protected.\n       (2) Corporate entities are prohibited from interfering with\n     the clinical decision-making of healthcare professionals in\n     ways that could adversely affect patient care.\n       (3) Adequate protections are established to ensure that\n     healthcare decisions are made in the best interest of\n     patients, free from undue financial or commercial pressures.\n       (4) Patients continue to receive high-quality, ethical care\n     in a manner consistent with professional standards; and be it\n     further\n       Resolved, That a copy of this Resolution shall be\n     transmitted to the secretary of the United States Senate, the\n     clerk of the United States House of Representatives, and each\n     member of the Louisiana congressional delegation.\n                                  ____\n\n       POM-13.

A resolution adopted by the House of\n     Representatives of the State of Ohio urging the United States\n     Congress to establish a special committee to investigate the\n     East Palestine, Ohio train derailment and the federal\n     Environmental Protection Agency's response to it; to the\n     Committee on Rules and Administration.\n\n                        House Resolution No. 147\n\n       Whereas, On February 3, 2023, a freight train derailed in\n     East Palestine, Ohio, while carrying hazardous materials,\n     including vinyl chloride, ethylene glycol monobutyl ether,\n     ethyl-hexyl acrylate, butyl acrylates, benzene residue, and\n     isobutylene. In response, officials evacuated a one-mile\n     radius around the derailment location and then extended it to\n     two miles a few days later; and\n       Whereas, The force of the crash caused several rail cars to\n     catch fire and others to spill their toxic loads onto the\n     soil, causing hazardous substances to travel into local\n     waterways; and\n       Whereas, Emergency crews were forced to conduct controlled\n     burns of five vinyl chloride tank rail cars to limit\n     potential explosions. But as a result of the controlled\n     burning, plumes of black smoke containing hazardous chemicals\n     were released into the air; and\n       Whereas, in September 2023, President Biden issued\n     Executive Order 14108, ``ensuring the people of East\n     Palestine are protected now and in the future.'' This\n     Executive Order also states, in pertinent part, that\n     ``available data show that no contaminants of concern have\n     been detected at levels of concern in the air in the affected\n     communities at sustained levels since the evacuation order\n     was lifted''; and\n       Whereas, The Executive Order also directed the Federal\n     Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to ``oversee long-term\n     recovery efforts in the affected communities and conduct a\n     comprehensive assessment of unmet needs of the affected\n     communities in recovering from the derailment beyond the\n     cleanup work directed by EPA''; and\n       Whereas, Newly-obtained documents acquired through a\n     Freedom of Information Act request show that officials from\n     FEMA voiced concerns that the chemical spill and the plume of\n     smoke set off by the controlled burn could cause ``cancer\n     clusters''; now therefore be it\n       Resolved, That we, the members of the House of\n     Representatives of the 136th General Assembly of the State of\n     Ohio, in adopting this resolution, urge Congress to establish\n     a special committee to investigate the East Palestine train\n     derailment and the United States Environmental Protection\n     Agency's response to it; and be it further\n       Resolved, That we, the members of the House of\n     Representatives of the 136th General Assembly of the State of\n     Ohio, in adopting this resolution, urge Congress to appoint\n     members of the Ohio Congressional delegation to the special\n     committee; and be it further\n\n[[Page S4902]]\n\n       Resolved, That the Clerk of the House of Representatives\n     transmit duly authenticated copies of this resolution to the\n     President of the United States, the Speaker and Clerk of the\n     United States House of Representatives, the President Pro\n     Tempore and Secretary of the United States Senate, each\n     member of Congress, and the news media of Ohio.\n                                  ____\n\n       POM-15. A concurrent resolution adopted by the Legislature\n     of the State of Louisiana urging thd United States Congress\n     to take action relative to the use of prior authorization\n     processes and its impact on the citizens of Louisiana; to the\n     Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions.\n\n                  Senate Concurrent Resolution No. 13\n\n       Whereas, the state of Louisiana recognizes the critical\n     need to ensure timely access to healthcare services for all\n     its citizens; and\n       Whereas, prior authorization processes, which are required\n     by insurance companies for certain medical treatments,\n     procedures, and medications, have been a persistent source of\n     delay, frustration, and barriers to timely and appropriate\n     care for Louisiana's patients; and\n       Whereas, these delays in care can result in negative health\n     outcomes, increased costs to both patients and the healthcare\n     system, and unnecessary suffering; and\n       Whereas, physicians in Louisiana report that the prior\n     authorization process places a significant administrative\n     burden on medical professionals, impeding their ability to\n     provide timely and effective care for their patients; and\n       Whereas, the Louisiana Legislature recognizes the need for\n     federal legislative action to streamline, standardize, and\n     reform the prior authorization process to ensure that\n     healthcare decisions are made in a timely and efficient\n     manner based on patient needs and not solely by insurance\n     protocols; and\n       Whereas, several states, including Louisiana, have made\n     strides at the state level to address prior authorization\n     issues, but further reforms are necessary at the federal\n     level to ensure consistency, fairness, and the protection of\n     patient welfare nationwide; and\n       Whereas, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services\n     (CMS) has taken steps to improve prior authorization\n     processes for Medicare Advantage plans, however there is\n     still much room for improvement; and\n       Whereas, bipartisan support exists for reform efforts that\n     improve access to care while reducing administrative burden\n     on providers and patients, including legislation such as the\n     ``Improving Seniors'' Timely Access to Care Act''; and\n       Whereas, federal legislation is needed to ensure that prior\n     authorization processes are transparent, that approval or\n     denial of medical services occurs in a timely manner, and\n     that there is a clear appeals process for patients and\n     providers.\n       Therefore, be it\n       Resolved, That the Legislature of Louisiana does hereby\n     memorialize the Congress of the United States to take\n     immediate and comprehensive action to reform prior\n     authorization policies, including:\n       (1) The establishment of clear, timely, and standardized\n     timelines for prior authorization decisions.\n       (2) The reduction of administrative burdens on healthcare\n     providers to streamline the process and ensure that patient\n     care is not delayed unnecessarily.\n       (3) The elimination of prior authorization requirements\n     relative to generic medications.\n       (4) The introduction of legislative measures that provide a\n     clear and effective appeals process for patients and\n     providers when prior authorization is denied.\n       (5) The implementation of regulations that prioritize the\n     needs of patients over bureaucratic red tape, ensuring that\n     healthcare decisions are made by healthcare professionals\n     rather than insurance companies.\n       (6) The creation of oversight and transparency mechanisms\n     to ensure that insurance companies comply with prior\n     authorization timelines and procedures.\n       Be it further\n       Resolved, That a copy of this Resolution shall be\n     transmitted to the secretary of the United States Senate, the\n     clerk of the United States House of Representatives, and each\n     member of the Louisiana congressional delegation.\n                                  ____\n\n                          ____________________"]], "columns": ["granule_id", "date", "congress", "session", "volume", "issue", "title", "chamber", "granule_class", "sub_granule_class", "page_start", "page_end", "speakers", "bills", "citation", "full_text"], "primary_keys": ["granule_id"], "primary_key_values": ["CREC-2025-07-30-pt1-PgS4899-6"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 11.580771999433637, "source": "Federal Register API & Regulations.gov API", "source_url": "https://www.federalregister.gov/developers/api/v1", "license": "Public Domain (U.S. Government data)", "license_url": "https://www.regulations.gov/faq"}
