The short explanation of this alert was:

Act today to help save overtime pay.

The Bush administration's overtime pay take-away, which took effect Aug. 23, put some 6 million workers at risk of losing their overtime pay. This massive pay cut for working families will have a huge impact on workers' ability to provide such things as food, shelter and education for their families.

Legislation being debated NOW in Congress could rescind this outrageous pay cut. The measure, sponsored by Democratic Reps. David Obey of Wisconsin and George Miller of California, could be voted on as early as today.

Please send a letter now to your U.S. representative and urge him/her to support the Obey-Miller amendment to save overtime pay.
