overtime take away bills - HR 2673 and what other bill?
Has anybody isolated the language that takes away overtime in it?
We need to hit on this 24-7.
Was there another overtime takeaway bill? what was it?

overtime is the poison to end all poisons.
We can end careers with this. This shouldn't be just used against Republicans, it should be used against the factions in the Party that are anti-people.

1. Over time pay
Was first developed for worker protection

It is financial incentive to reduce work related injuries. Any one such as the current administration that works so feverishly to reduce middle class pay and worker safety cares nothing for middle America

2. This isn't just the current administration
I include in this every single Democrat that voted for this. No Democrat can be so stupid as to sign off on this and not expect a Republican bill to come down to slash at all of the projects in Democratic districts.
Democrats should say no every single time that there is a trojan horse in a bill no matter how bad things get.
