President Donald Trump may abandon a plan that would give millions of American workers extra pay when they work overtime. The rule was put in place by former President Joe Biden but was blocked by a federal judge last year. Now, Trump’s team has chosen not to defend the rule in court.
According to Huffpost, the Biden rule would make many more workers eligible for time-and-a-half pay when they work more than 40 hours in a week. This would help about 4 million workers get extra money or more free time. Many workers, like retail store manager,s work very long hours but don’t get any extra pay beyond their regular salary, even if they work 70 hours in a week.
