The Department of Labor received more than 2,000 comments in response to its Request for Information on whether to revise its list of Schedule A job classifications that do not require permanent labor certification.
Key Points:
Additional Information: DOL published this RFI in December 2023 in response to a directive from President Biden in the October 2023 Executive Order on Artificial Intelligence, and accepted comments until May 13. Many of the comments in favor of updating Schedule A reminded DOL of this directive, arguing that taking this action would serve important national interests and ensure the United States continues to lead in critical fields.
BAL Analysis: The RFI was a preliminary step in the rulemaking process, and DOL will now review this information and determine its next steps. BAL will continue to monitor developments relating to Schedule A and will provide updates as information becomes available.
