The DHS press release[1] has more details. Link to the proposed rule on reginfo.gov[2].

In short, this rule allows spouses of H1B holders to work, provided the H1B holder has an approved I-140 or has their H1B extended beyond 6 year limit under AC21. Notice that this rule is very specific and does not cover all H1B holders.

Lot of people seem to miss this important point.
