Harkin works overtime to save overtime

Here's an update on the overtime issue from the Working Families e-activist network:

President Bush and Secretary of Labor Elaine Chao are still expected to finalize their overtime pay take-away before the end of March. An exact date has not been announced yet. At the same time, Sen. Tom Harkin (D-Iowa) is pushing for a vote this week on a legislative measure to block the Bush administration from cutting overtime pay.

The Petition to Save Overtime Pay now has more than 570,000 signers. We'll announce a special new effort on overtime pay you can support next week. For now, it's more important than ever that you reach out to your friends, family and co-workers to let them know about the Bush overtime pay take-away.
