A Trump Judge Just Blocked Overtime Pay for Millions... Media is Silent [View all]

A federal judge named Sean D. Jordan from Texas just made a ruling blocking President Biden’s policy to provide guaranteed overtime pay to workers who make less than $58,656 a year.

The lawsuit was filed against the Biden administration in Texas by the Republican Attorney General of Texas and various right-wing business groups aligned with Trump.

The lawsuit was deliberately brought in Texas to find a Trump-appointed judge who would ultimately rule against President Biden and against workers. The lawsuit is titled Texas v. Department of Labor, E.D. Tex., No. 24-00499, and I bet you’ve never even heard of it until now.

The facts in this case are simple: President Biden has been the most pro-labor president in American history, despite the media failing to report on his accomplishments for workers.
