The Restoring Overtime Pay Act of 2026 amends the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 to establish a minimum salary threshold for exempting bona fide executive, administrative, and professional employees from federal overtime compensation requirements. The threshold starts at $45,000 and increases annually to $75,000 by 2029. The Secretary of Labor can establish a higher threshold based on the 55th percentile of weekly earnings of full-time salaried workers. The threshold is updated annually, with a notice requirement 60 days before the change takes effect.
