How can the Bush administration claim workers earning less than $100,000 would not lose their overtime rights, while others claim 6 million workers would be affected?
There is no good answer to this question. A recent report by three of the highest ranking Labor Department officials in the Reagan, Bush and Clinton administrations documented dozens of changes in the new overtime rules that will take away overtime rights from workers earning as little as $23,660. The Bush administration simply ignores these changes.
