* 1. What positions in your industry / location are likely to be impacted (i.e., would lose exempt status or be required to move to more than $147,414)?

Question Title

* 2. It is virtually certain that the HCE level will increase. If $147,414 is too high, is there a figure between $100,000 and $147,414 that would limit the operational impact of any change?
