VETERANS FEEL THE STING OF BUSH'S OVERTIME PAY CUT -- ARE YOU NEXT?

President Bush is taking overtime pay away from millions of Americans who rely on it to make ends meet, and veterans will be among the first victims of the new rules. The new regulations will allow employers to define some military training as equivalent to a four-year degree and declare their veteran employees ineligible for overtime pay. That's President Bush's program for those who join the military: drop into a war zone, risk your life for your country, then come home to find you aren't eligible for overtime pay. Bush's overtime outrage is a devastating attack on families, too.

The reductions in pay and longer hours that will inevitably come with losing overtime will be a strain on the families already struggling with the rising health care costs, lower job security, and other effects of Bush's failed economic policies.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK

"When I signed up in 1973, the Air Force and I made a deal that I thought was fair. They got a chunk of my time and I got training to help me build the rest of my life. There was no part of that deal that said I would have to give up my overtime pay." .... Vietnam-era veteran Randy Fleming [AFL-CIO release, 1/29/04]
