Seasonal and labor intensive industries face many challenges in recruiting and retaining employees. With legislation constantly being introduced to eliminate or restrict temporary worker programs, we are often working to inform members of Congress and their staff about the importance these industries have on the economy.
Knowing the frameworks of the H-2B Certification for Temporary Non-Agriculture and H-2A Temporary Agriculture Programs allows DCLRS to keep our clients informed of changes that will impact their business.

We have combined experience in addressing legislative and regulatory issues that face the industry, such as:

In addition, DCLRS has engaged in other areas of labor policy including issues related to labor union organizing and workplace safety.

"Working with D.C. Legislative and Regulatory Services (DCLRS) has allowed the Federation of Employers and Workers of America (FEWA) to remain connected to Congress and the Administration. Legislative success has been possible by having DCLRS be the eyes, ears and voice for FEWA members in Washington, D.C."
