Supreme Court to Consider Fair Pay Challenge, Decision Expected Monday
June 22, 2016
The U.S. Supreme Court will decide whether it will review a critical lower court decision on home care workers’ wages during its scheduled June 23 conference session.
Advocates expect that the court will announce whether it will accept or reject the home care industry’s petition on June 27.
In August 2015, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District Columbia Circuit upheld a federal rule change granting minimum-wage and overtime protections to home care workers for the first time.
