U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas vacated NLRB's expanded joint employment rule, restoring the 2020 standard.

The National Labor Relations Board's (NLRB) expanded joint employment rule, which aimed to make it easier for the NLRB to identify joint employment, has been vacated by the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas. The court ruled that the NLRB's rule was too broad and unlawful, restoring the 2020 joint employment standard. The NLRB is reviewing the decision and is considering its next steps, potentially appealing the ruling to the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals.
