Why I voted YES: No tax on overtime
In America, we should always reward hard work. The One Big Beautiful Bill does exactly that by making sure overtime pay is no longer punished by our tax code.
Workers who stayed late, covered extra shifts, or put in long weekends to support their loved ones and keep businesses running, found themselves paying heavier tax burdens, putting more pressure on American workers. But that ends now.
Under this bill, Americans who put in overtime can deduct overtime up to $12,500 per year for individuals and $25,000 for married couples filing jointly. That’s real money staying in the pockets of the people who actually earned it.
Whether you’re a nurse picking up extra shifts, a police officer covering the holidays, or a truck driver pushing overtime to make a deadline—you’ll get to keep more of what you earned.
I voted YES on the One Big Beautiful Bill because it rewards the Americans who build our communities, keep our families safe, and maintain our economy. Our nation works best when Americans who work hard get to keep more of their paycheck.
