REALTOR® Call for Action: Tell Congress to Protect Independent Contractor Status

Aug 28, 2024

Want to keep your independent contractor status? You need to contact your member of Congress! The U.S. Department of Labor’s (DOL) final rule on enforcing the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) is too broad and causing major concerns for independent real estate contractors once protected under the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). It's why NAR is urging your member of Congress to cosponsor H.R. 5419, the Direct Seller and Real Estate Agent Harmonization Act. This bill would help ensure real estate agents and direct sellers maintain their voluntary independent contractor status under the FLSA. CLICK HERE TO TAKE ACTION NOW!
