DOL is trying to take away minimum wage and overtime from millions of workers. Just thought I’d mention that.

Yep, I know.
Has anyone alerted Lori Chavez Deremer? She lauded him as the champion of American workers in the suck-up fest at the White House the other day.
I helped write post cards to flip her seat blue & run her out of the Oregon house. Her & another semi local crazy (actually crazier & more dangerous) Joe Kent, were beaten, only to join the parade of losers that trump filled his cabinet with.
Any sources you can like that I can read about this? This is mental.
"On August 19, 2025, a panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit ruled....the structure of the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) is likely unconstitutional due to statutory removal protections for its administrative law judges (ALJs) and board members, which insulates them from
Presidential control. www.google.com/search?q=jud...
The felon doesn’t believe in overtime. It was a scam to say they’d be no tax on OT. Because the plan was to end it. No tax on OT. No tax on nothing is nothing. 🤷🏻♀️
Reagan's trickledown economics. 13 US billionaires in 1980 and just shy of a trillion dollar National Debt. Add undermining public services in the form of privatization. 45 years later there are 800+ US billionaires and a 33 trillion dollar National Debt. An economy designed to create trillionaires.
Protect 2025 said, something to the effect, that employers will be able to base overtime on a new standard, not a 40 hr work week. Example, they can extend it to so many hours over as month or whatever they see fit. At least that’s what I think I remember reading in it.
work week would be replaced by a work month so an overage in one week could be offset by cutting hrs the following week, it would also allow for a monthly paycheck not weekly or bi-monthly, also adjusts the 35hr wk to 40hrs eliminating much OT, 2,080 hr work yr vs 1820hrs, big issue for hrly workers
Can't pay taxes on OT if you don't get OT
see...no tax on overtime because there will be no overtime, its all in project 2025 if they would've read it.
That is exactly the plan.
Lowering the minimum wage will be their solution to high prices (they think the prices will fall to match), It will also allow them to have an excuse to cut social security. If there is one thing I have learned in life, once a price rises, it never goes down.
"No taxes on overtime!"
Is there more? I believe you, but are there any more details you might clue us in to about this? Unions are going to want to know and hear about this.
If unions aren’t already aware…….
Isnt there some judge trying to rule that the NLRB is unconstitutional?
I mean, maybe. They don't want that fight, though. Not in court, at least. Maga has no teeth to it- in court. They would lose so badly if they even tried to take that to court(unless it's SCOTUS). FOTUS, I don't think has won a single court case against him in years. They're terrible in court-LOSSES
To which of my posts is this in reference to?

Fifth circuit did www.google.com/search?q=jud...
I should read. Good looking out though
I am totally confused because the Interstate Commerce Clause gives Congress the power to regulate interstate commerce. So what if Congress didnt give the ability to the President to hire and fire at will the members. It's that damn Unitary Executive belief raising its dick-tatorship head...
It may not even matter soon. Nobody has heard from FOTUS lately. It's quite unlike him to stop talking for days in a row. Nobody can push the illegal agenda like FOTUS. Anything without FOTUS is going to fizzle out like a bad fart. Anyone else will be restrained too much. SCOTUS doesn't owe Vance
Truly, Dear Leader is a friend to the American Worker 😂
Well, that's how they make overtime tax free, by making sure you never get it
On Labor Day as well Fuck these guys!
Forget Minimum Wage! There should be Maximum Wage = 30x the wage & benefits of lowest paid employee. Everything above that is 95% TAX!!
Duh. Why did people think he was running on “no tax on overtime”? It was his scam to get votes. He never paid anyone his entire life. Now he’s making it law no not pay.
The original sin was failing to send trump to prison for the rest of his life," for mounting a violent coup to overthrow the election of 2020. He should have been charged and jailed, period.
Thank the members of the senate for allowing that to happen, especially those who condemned his actions, but voted to acquit him anyway.
So far, House Republicans have: - Blocked tougher money laundering laws - Blocked tougher foreign bribery laws - Blocked tougher hate crime laws - Blocked tougher cybersecurity laws - Blocked releasing the Epstein Files These are the people who promised to protect us?
This makes me hungry
This has been a scam all along (naturally). No tax on overtime... when there is no overtime. Same thing with no taxes on tips, but a bit more heinous: www.facebook.com/reel/9141041... The information was out there in the open before the election. Project 2025. We tried to warn. FAFO
The same overtime that is supposedly exempt from federal taxes 🤔
And ceos wonder why people hate them. When the workers are saddled with debt, the rich can own us...
On Labor day no less...how thoughtful
That should kick off the civil war.
Happy Labor Day indeed. 🤦🏻♀️🤬
If overtime pay goes away there will be hell to pay. that would make headlines in every state and every single gun toting conservative would be affected along with every liberal.
No there won’t. Americans will just do what they’ve been doing for the last 8 months. Whine, wring their hands and complain that someone (not them) should do something about it.
Idk. I work a factory job as an aircraft inspector. Large majority of people I work with are republican and do A LOT of over time. Some is even mandatory over time.
A hard working American that is making $1500 a week working 72 hours of overtime comes back and sees their check reduced to $900 is going to set off red flags for the entire maga base
Only if it makes its way into the media they consume.
Yes, a lot of these people work overtime to afforded their brand new F150 trucks. I know some I work with who are pulling 50-60 hour weeks yet complain they are broke because of a mortgage, family and vehicle payments. If any group of people lives beyond their means it's blue collar republicans.
I work 40 hours a week with up to 10 OT My boss doesn’t like giving more than that I work just enough to stay afloat and go to school I’m not gonna kill myself just for a shiny new truck I’m not a slave to work
Same here lol
You’re wrong. Americans have been largely silent because his policies have left the majority largely unaffected. They come for OT 1.5x pay, that will enrage even the most non-political among us. My coworkers largely depend on OT pay to make ends meet.
I’m from Chicago We had something called the haymarket martyrs We will do it again.
The pot's been boiling for 8 months now, no one is going to jump for this, maybe another protest with pretty banners and noise for a day.
“No tax on OT” was *always* going to result in eliminating OT pay (not the OT labor). Always. Labor leaders explain how any given republican bullshit hurts labor and then labor reminds us that they don’t believe liberals labor leaders or understand progressive taxing and vote to fuck themselves.
I mentioned this days ago. Trump, his handlers and their thugs HAVE been following Project 2025❗️ One of the next steps in Project 2025 was to removed workers protections, including repealing the Davis-Bacon Act of 1931. As I recall, it was around page 604 of Project 2025.
@democrats.org hello????
They're complicit The whole fucking thing needs to be thrown out and start all over
What took them so long? Been waiting for that, because that's big win for... well not for the working class. #MAGAsoMuchWinning
All part of project 2025
so intern us just another word for indentured
Why? It's not like they get a percentage of doing that move. And thank you for mentioning it.

You lot should NEVER have let the right weaken and destroy your unions. Union strong.
