Court rules for Texas in lawsuit over Biden administration overtime rule | Texas

SUMMARY: Texas has successfully challenged the Biden administration’s efforts to revive an Obama-era overtime rule affecting employer compensation under the Fair Labor Standards Act. Attorney General Ken Paxton filed a lawsuit against the rule, which aimed to raise the minimum salary requirement for exempt employees, potentially impacting millions. A federal court in Texas vacated the rule, stating it violated the Administrative Procedure Act and imposed excessive costs on employers. The ruling represents Texas’s ongoing legal battles against the Biden administration, having filed over 100 lawsuits on various issues, many of which they have won.
