As Congress struggles to enact comprehensive federal employment laws, states are stepping in, leading to a fragmented regulatory landscape. Businesses will face challenges in adapting to varying state policies, particularly regarding noncompete agreements, paid-leave policies, pay-transparency regulations, and artificial intelligence governance. The current Republican control in Congress suggests that companies might see less federal regulation, further complicating compliance as they deal with inconsistent state laws.
With Congress unwilling to pass federal laws, states will take over, resulting in a fragmented legal landscape that challenges businesses navigating differing state policies.
