What this bill would do

This bill, titled the "No Tax on Overtime for All Workers Act," proposes to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. The goal is to allow a deduction for certain types of overtime compensation. This includes overtime required under the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938. It also covers compensation exceeding a regular rate based on specific agreements between employees and employers. These agreements must involve work exceeding a standard number of hours, such as 40 hours in a 7-day period. Finally, it includes specific provisions for those covered by the Railway Labor Act.
