The Biden administration's destructive regulatory agenda is jeopardizing the franchise model. President Biden will stop at nothing to advance big labor's agenda, even if it means harming workers. The Biden administration is working overtime to shove as many workers as possible into unions, regardless of worker preference. The Biden administration's proposed joint employer rule will fundamentally destroy the franchise model by taking autonomy away from individual franchise owners, depriving them of the ability to run their own businesses. Being able to own a franchise business, like a fast-food restaurant, is a ticket to the American Dream, especially for women and minorities. Americans who invested their time and energy into building a business do not deserve to have it snatched away all because President Biden wants to appease big labor. To save the American Dream for these businessowners and promote better opportunities for our entire workforce, Republicans will oppose this dangerous power grab. Instead, we will support policies that put workers and job creators first. ____________________
