To allow the recovery of attorneys’ fees and costs by certain employers
and labor organizations who are prevailing parties in proceedings brought
against them by the National Labor Relations Board or by the Occupa-
tional Safety and Health Administration.
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
MAY 27, 1999
Mr. GOODLING introduced the following bill; which was referred to the

A BILL
To allow the recovery of attorneys’ fees and costs by certain
employers and labor organizations who are prevailing
parties in proceedings brought against them by the Na-
tional Labor Relations Board or by the Occupational

tives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ‘‘Fair Access to Indem-

SEC. 2. FINDINGS AND PURPOSE.
(a) FINDINGS.—The Congress makes the following
findings:
(1) Certain small businesses and labor organi-

pertise and resources when facing actions brought by
the National Labor Relations Board or by the Occu-
pational Safety and Health Administration.
(2) The attempt to ‘‘level the playing field’’ for
small businesses and labor organizations by means
of the Equal Access to Justice Act has proven inef-
fective and has been underutilized by these small en-
tities in their actions before the National Labor Re-
lations Board and before the Occupational Safety
and Health Review Commission.
(3) The greater expertise and resources of the
National Labor Relations Board and the Occupa-
tional Safety and Health Administration as com-
pared with those of small businesses and labor orga-
nizations necessitate a standard that awards fees
and costs to certain small entities when they prevail
against the National Labor Relations Board or
against the Occupational Safety and Health Admin-
istration.
