Judge: Obama Administration's New Overtime Rules an Overreach

Judge: Obama Administration's New Overtime Rules an Overreach
You can't just make changes that ignore the intent of the law. "As Mazzant explained in his ruling, while the Department of Labor does have leeway to make adjustments and updates to the rules, it can't do so in such a way that goes against the law's intent. The law doesn't use pay levels to determine who is exempt from overtime, though there are minimum pay levels written in the law. It actually uses job duties to determine who qualifies for overtime. The new rule completely ignores the emphasis on job duties"
