ARTBA and industry allies submitted a letter urging DOL and DOJ to stop defending the 2024 overtime rule. The comments highlight:

  • The rule would reclassify many salaried employees as hourly, reducing flexibility, benefits, and advancement.
  • Employers would face higher costs and administrative burdens, impacting operations and consumers.
  • Courts have already struck down the rule as exceeding DOL’s authority.
  • Automatic updates would take effect without public input or consideration of economic conditions.
