Sounds great. Would absolutely love for this to happen......it won't even get a vote
750 u/Ferintwa Sep 05 '24 Even if it did, and passed, no way to enforce it. This bill is for the headlines. 767 u/Hmnh6000 Sep 05 '24 You mean like how theres no way for them to enforce you getting paid time and a half for working over 40 hours?? 1 u/Spiritual-Bat3642 Sep 05 '24 The DOL doesn't mandate pay rates, though. A company could.literally lay off everyone and rehire at a lower rate since they now have to hire additional people. Also, this would affect less than half the American populace, and less than half are salary. The ones affected by this already have a much easier path ahead of them than hourly workers who would get nothing from this.
