ASA Advocates for Key Staffing-Related Provisions of the One Big Beautiful Bill

Following months of meetings, negotiations, starts and stops, and tweaking, adding, and removing language, Congress passed H.R. 1, “An Act to Provide for Reconciliation Pursuant to Title II of H. Con. Res. 14” (also known as “The One Big Beautiful Bill Act”). The 870-page bill was signed into law by president Trump on July 4.

Since the 119th Congress convened in January, ASA has held more than 60 meetings with key members of Congress and staff of the House Ways and Means Committee, including chairman Jason Smith (R-MO), as well as staff and members of the Senate Finance Committee and the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee. While the bill touches every aspect of federal policy from taxes to health care to immigration to defense to energy, ASA advocacy efforts focused on making permanent Section 199A, the qualified business income deduction; preservation of the Individual Coverage Health Reimbursement Arrangement classification for temporary workers; preservation of the favorable tax treatment for per diem plans; and the future of the Work Opportunity Tax Credit. See the full article detailing the advocacy efforts and accomplishments of the ASA legal team.

ASA will closely monitor the implementation of H.R. 1, especially as new rules and technical guidance are developed and published. If you have any questions regarding the bill and how it may affect your company, feel free to reach out to the ASA legal department.

How Are Staffing Firms Using Technology?

Technology is advancing at a rapid pace, providing innovative new ways to source, engage, select, and hire candidates. Navigating and understanding the technology landscape, however, is a challenge. ASA and Talent Tech Labs ran an industry-wide survey to understand how staffing firms are utilizing technology and how satisfied they are with specific tools and vendors.

Check out the results for help benchmarking your firm’s use of technology and mapping a technology roadmap. There’s an infographic that highlights the most important strategic findings from that survey—including overall industry adoption, satisfaction with vendors, the average number of technology tools that staffing firms use, and even what the actual industry “tech stack” looks like today.
