How much could you benefit from overtime reform? Test our overtime calculator and send your message to the Department of Labor by Friday! For years, workers' rights and protections have been steadily whittled away so that many families find themselves working harder and harder but still finding it difficult to make ends meet. While rights such as overtime pay used to apply to more than 60% of salaried workers in 1975, today only 8% qualify.Recently, the Department of Labor proposed a plan to protect millions more workers from overtime abuse. They need to hear from you by this Friday.By raising the overtime threshold for salaried workers to $50,440, the administration will help raise incomes for both low-wage and middle-class workers, improving economic security for American families. More money in the pockets of workers also means more spent at local businesses, boosting our economy. Take action by Friday, September 4 at 4 pm. Visit FixOvertime.org and tell the Department of Labor that you support the proposed overtime protections.En Español Follow us on: Support CAP Action | Manage Email Preferences | Privacy Policy | UnsubscribeContributions to Center for American Progress Action Fund are not tax deductibleCenter for American Progress Action Fund | 1333 H Street NW, 10th Floor | Washington, DC 20005 This email was sent to rightbuy18@GMAIL.COM.
