be instructed to insist on reporting an amendment to prohibit the 
Department of Labor from using funds under the Act to implement any

overtime pay who would otherwise qualify for overtime pay under 
regulations under section 13 of the Fair Labor Standards Act in effect 
September 3, 2003, except that nothing in the amendment shall affect 
the increased salary requirements provided in such regulations as 
specified in section 541 of title 29 of the Code of Federal 
Regulations, as promulgated on April 23, 2004.
