Plain-English Summary

The proposal would prevent the federal government from taxing overtime pay that workers earn above their regular 40-hour work week. This would allow employees who work extra hours to keep more of that overtime income without paying federal income tax on it. The change would primarily benefit workers who regularly work overtime, though it could reduce tax revenue collected by the government.
