Posts - Bill - HR 3495 Direct Seller and Real Estate Agent Harmonization Act
house 05/19/2025 - 119th Congress
We want to update the Fair Labor Standards Act to clearly state that direct sellers and real estate agents are not classified as employees under the law. This aims to provide clearer guidelines on their work status and how labor rules apply to them.

Finally, a bill that respects independent contractors and doesn’t suffocate entrepreneurship with red tape.

Why cage direct sellers in outdated rules? Time to let job creators keep creating without extra chains.

Because why offer fair wages when you can just redefine who counts as an employee? Classic corporate magic trick.
