Action Alert: Use Your Voice to Block Overtime Pay Exclusion

Congressional attempts to block U.S. Department of Labor regulations that

would deny overtime pay for millions of American workers, including nurses,

failed when the Senate gave final approval to an omnibus appropriations

support workers' rights to overtime pay. You can help by contacting your

congressional representatives and President Bush to express your

disappointment that the proposed overtime regulations remained and how

important overtime pay is to you. Go to
