house 01/20/2025 - 119th Congress
We're working to pass the Overtime Pay Tax Relief Act of 2025, aiming to amend the Internal Revenue Code so individuals can deduct a portion of their overtime compensation from their taxable income, up to 20% of their wages. This bill will provide tax relief to hardworking Americans earning below specified income levels, ultimately supporting those who dedicate extra hours to their jobs.
