The bill adjusts the dollar thresholds for the National Labor Relations Board's jurisdiction over certain labor disputes under 29 U.S.C. § 164.

  • 29 U.S.C. 164(c)

    In establishing by rule under paragraph (1) any dollar threshold with respect to a class or category of employers for the purposes of declining to assert jurisdiction over certain labor disputes involving such class or category of employers, the Board shall establish such dollar threshold at an amount-- (A) with respect to calendar year 2026, equal to the product of-- (i) the dollar threshold applicable to such class or category as of the day prior to the date of enactment of the Small Businesses before Bureaucrats Act, multiplied by (ii) ten; and (B) with respect to any calendar year after 2026, equal to the product of-- (i) the dollar threshold applicable to such class or category with respect to calendar year 2026 (after the date of enactment of the Small Businesses before Bureaucrats Act), multiplied by (ii) the quotient obtained by dividing-- (I) the Personal Consumption Expenditure Per Capita Index (as published by the Bureau of Economic Analysis) with respect to the calendar year preceding the applicable calendar year for which the dollar threshold under this subparagraph is determined; by (II) the Personal Consumption Expenditure Per Capita Index with respect to calendar year 2026.

    This inserts new requirements for the Board to establish updated dollar thresholds impacting its jurisdiction over labor disputes.

  • 29 U.S.C. 164(c)

    Nothing in this subchapter shall be deemed to prevent or bar any agency or the courts of any State or Territory (including the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, Guam, and the Virgin Islands), from assuming and asserting jurisdiction over labor disputes over which the Board declines, pursuant to paragraph (1) of this subsection, to assert jurisdiction.

    This removes the existing text that clarifies states' ability to assert jurisdiction when the Board declines.

  • 29 U.S.C. 164(c)

    Beginning in calendar year 2027, the Director of the Bureau of Economic Analysis of the Department of Commerce shall annually prepare and publish an index (to be known as the ``Personal Consumption Expenditure Per Capita Index'') that reflects expenditures by individuals in the United States on a per capita basis with respect to the calendar year preceding the calendar year in which the Director prepares and publishes the index.

    This mandates the annual publication of a new economic index that will be used to determine future dollar thresholds.

  • 29 U.S.C. 164(c)

    Effective Date.--The amendments made by this section shall apply to any decision of the National Labor Relations Board relating to the assertion of its jurisdiction over a labor dispute made on or after the later of January 1, 2026, and the date of enactment of this section.

    This adds an effective date for the new amendments regarding jurisdiction.
