Bill,
I do my best to stay away from politics too, but I'm an old activist at heart. While it doesn't impact me (I'm salaried), it would impact a lot of other people. Many people rely on overtime pay just to support themselves. I'd ecourage anyone to contact their representatives urging that this bill be defeated.
