American workers who put in additional hours to provide for their families face an unjust burden: taxes on overtime pay. This system discourages hard work and penalizes those who are willing to go the extra mile for their employer and their family's wellbeing. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, in 2019, 30 percent of wage and salary workers in the United States worked overtime, with an additional 8.6 percent working over 60 hours per week (Bureau of Labor Statistics, 2019). These dedicated individuals deserve to keep the full fruits of their extra labor, rather than having it diminished by taxation. Therefore, we call upon the U.S. government to remove taxes on overtime pay, thereby supporting and honoring the hardworking citizens of the nation. Please stand for fair pay and sign the petition.
