The Department of Labor's overtime rule that was slated to begin on 12-1-2016 has been blocked and the judge has granted a nationwide injunction.
A federal judge on Tuesday blocked a new Labor Department rule that made millions more Americans eligible for overtime pay. The decision by U.S. District Judge Amos Mazzini granted a preliminary injunction that blocks overtime pay for 4.2 million workers who worked in excess of 40 hours per week.
