PLEASE TAKE TIME TO DO THIS! 

Please Take a minute to sign and send this online petition to Mr. Bush that working people don't want changes in their overtime !

 

 
Tell President Bush: Withdraw your overtime pay take-away.

We, the undersigned, oppose any laws that would take away overtime pay from workers, erode the 40-hour workweek or otherwise undermine overtime protections. I urge President Bush to withdraw his overtime take-away proposal and withdraw his pledge to veto legislation that would protect overtime pay.
