Very curious too. Would absolutely love for this to happen, but what are the realistic chances?

Companies discourage OT because they have to pay more for it currently. That will soon change. Companies will have a lesser tax burden once taxing OT is off the table, so they will be more willing to extend OT.
Take every opportunity to capitalize on this once Good Orange Man gets this through Congress.

It will be an incredible political play if it goes forward. The dims have to go along b/c otherwise they will be seen as fighting against the working class. If it passes the Republicans will be known for giving the working class families the most incredible tax cut ever.

I don’t see it happening. I hope like heck it does, but realistically, I don’t see these type of taxes going away. It’s a lot better than giving first time home buyers 25k and pushing inflation.

The tax burden is on the employee and not the companies. Companies don't like OT since it increases expenses.

They will say it’s terrible. 0% chance they say it’s a good thing

I believe OT will still be taxed, but it won’t be taxed at such a high rate. It will be taxed as normal income. Now they need to work on commission and bonuses..

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but you arne't charged a higher tax on either of these. Yes, at issuance more is withheld due to the possibility of your EOY effective rate being higher, so its offsetting, but as far as at the end of year, it all settles out
Whatever your EOY effective rate is is what you pay.
And you can always make yourself exempt at payout and just owe the taxes at year end.

Most people spend whatever extra money that they have, and people spending money is a really good thing for the economy.

Lots to tackle on the tax front. Extending sunsetting provisions, potential corporate tax rate reduction. They might make good on the campaign proposal on overtime pay but there's a host of other items that will take priority.

If that revenue is lost, where will it be made up? Shouldn’t we be doing everything possible to reduce deficit, then reverse debt?
Why keep piling on, accelerating toward the collapse?

0.0000012%. And that's being generous.

Do you know what DOGE is an acronym for?

Wut? Wages are taxed as ordinary income at ordinary income tax rates.
The reason for the overwithholding on bonuses is to prevent people from underpaying their taxes.
It is much easier to give you your money back than to go chase you down later when you file.
There is no difference in the taxation of bonus, salary, OT but merely the tax withholding.
Learn the difference.
