From Fox News: As the GOP’s “big beautiful bill” heads to the Senate next month, one provision legislators from both parties should keep their sights squarely set on is no tax on overtime, because in my travels talking to working Americans, no policy comes up more often.
It is not hyperbole to suggest that, if successfully implemented, vastly reducing overtime tax on America’s workers would be the most politically significant measure in the bill, and could easily help Republicans sweep the midterms.
It is very rare, when I’m out talking to people on the road, for person after person to keep mentioning something I never even brought up.
For the past couple of months, the thing I have heard over and over again from workers and employers is how much they desperately want no tax on overtime
According to David Marcus, who wrote the OP-ED referenced above, the change could be good for Republicans in the midterms. If American workers are happy and able to keep more of their money, GOP candidates will be able to call out Democrats who voted against it.
Marcus Says that men and women who work hard would see eliminating the overtime tax as “far more meaningful than any stimulus check could be.”
He later points out that one of President Donald J. Trump’s political strengths is in identifying “the issues American voters deeply care about[,] that the media largely ignores.”

“I don’t know how Trump does it. I know how I do it. I spend hours traveling and talking to people. Maybe Trump talks to the working-class people he employs, or judges based on crowd reactions, but however he does it, on this issue, finger meets pulse.” https://t.co/QE8cDCL2KC
