It\'s about time that these workers receive a fair share of compensatory time. It\'s good to see a Republican sponsor something that helps workers.

I agree. Overtime worked for comp time so it can be used for family time later should never be at a lower value than money. Equal is equal.

It's only fair that overtime be comped as time and ahalf. I've only worked for the Government for 3 years but I do work alot of OT for comp and have always disagreed on the way that its only worth one hours work but worth 1 1/2 if you choose money. Let's pray that it will change.
