Support for not taxing overtime pay

Pete Ricketts praised the One Big Beautiful Bill Act’s provision that overtime pay would not be taxed. He said people were signing up to work overtime, contrasting that with the past, when employers had to ask people to take overtime. The law had passed by the time he discussed it; he did not specify eligibility rules or implementation details.
