Acosta has played a central role in that deregulation, helping ensure that the fruits of the longest expansion on record keep on benefiting businesses more so than workers. The Department of Labor is moving forward on a proposal to scale back an Obama-era expansion of overtime pay, stripping time-and-a-half compensation from millions of lower-income workers. It delayed a rule requiring that financial advisers commit to act in the best interests of their clients. It has also relaxed regulations designed to ensure that tipped workers are fully compensated and rolled back workplace-safety reporting rules.

I am more than happy to let the chips fall where they may. Just like I did with Russiagate.

The Obama expansion never went into effect. So no one is impacted at all if Acosta modifies it.
That rule was put on hold in 2016 before it went into effect and invalidated by a judge in 2017.

How can they possibly strip OT pay from workers that never got it to begin with ?

These journalists need to start off their "stories" with Once Upon a time because that article is bogus.
