Provide Overtime Tax Relief for People who work hard.

Created by E.T. on January 08, 2014

As a worker at the bottom of the 25% tax bracket, I am discouraged by the amount of taxes deducted from my paycheck and my incentive to work extra hours. I work overtime with the assumption of making more money but by the end of the year I am taxed so much on the overtime that I would have made the same amount of money if I had decided not to work it in the first place this is not fair. I should not be working longer hours to provide money for the government. I am calling on the Government to create a tax relief program to individuals working in excess of 40 hours per week/2080 hours per year to lift the burden of jumping tax brackets and losing all the money they worked so hard to make in the first place.
