Not EVERYONE on salary is exempt from overtime pay.

Also, drivers and farmers are exempt from overtime pay, but you should check it out. Salaried overtime pay is a HUGE point of wage theft.

That is true but I’ve never worked a salary job with overtime. I also agree it should be more of a thing. I’m not a fan of companies working people 60-80 hours a week because they are “salary”. That was never the intent for salary. This bill as stated will never pass. I’m not sure Bernie has ever really got any bills to pass.
