Plain-English Summary

This bill would require trucking companies to pay drivers overtime pay when they work more than a certain number of hours per week, similar to protections that apply to most other workers. Currently, federal law exempts truck drivers from overtime requirements, meaning companies can require long hours without extra pay. The change would affect trucking companies and their drivers across the country.
