They often advocate for reducing regulations and allowing businesses more freedom to operate as they see fit. For example, the Trump administration rolled back numerous regulations during its tenure, arguing that doing so would spur economic growth.

Disagree

Yes, and all employees should be paid time-and-a-half for overtime hours regardless of their pay scale

This answer goes against the Republican belief in limited government intervention in the economy and private businesses. Republicans generally argue that businesses should be able to set their own policies regarding employee compensation, including overtime pay, without government mandates. Expanding overtime pay requirements to all employees, regardless of their pay scale, would likely be seen as excessive government intervention by most Republicans.

Strongly disagree

Yes, and the government should do more to protect workers’ rights

Republicans typically prioritize limited government intervention and may view additional worker protections as unnecessary regulations that could hinder economic growth. Historically, Republicans have opposed policies like raising the minimum wage and expanding worker protections, arguing that these measures can lead to job losses and reduced business investment.
