Texas among 21 states suing the US Government over overtime rule

A coalition of 21 states is suing the U.S. Department of Labor over a new rule that would make more higher-earning workers eligible for overtime pay.

Nevada Attorney General Adam Laxalt filed the lawsuit in Texas on Tuesday, urging the court to block implementation before the regulation takes effect on Dec. 1.

Laxalt said the rule would burden private and public sectors and represents inappropriate federal overreach.
