AI Summary

This bill proposes to amend West Virginia law to exempt overtime pay from personal income tax. The existing law, which is being modified by inserting new language, currently imposes a tax on personal income.

The purpose of this legislation is to provide financial relief to workers by allowing them to keep more of their earnings from overtime work.
