Democratic lawmakers introduced legislation Tuesday to stiffen the penalties for employers who fail to pay overtime to workers, saying they are trying to counter the Trump administration’s move to roll back Obama administration regulations that vastly expanded coverage of the federal overtime law.

“It is simply wrong that employers are able to take advantage of their workers and cheat them out of their hard-earned pay, and all too often women, immigrants, and workers of color are those who have to pay the price. While President Trump continues to break campaign promises and roll back worker protections, I’m going to keep fighting so every worker is treated fairly and paid what they’ve earned. I’m proud to introduce this bill as another step towards building an economy that works for all, not just those at the top,” said Sen. Patty Murray, D-Wash.
