Double time is required in California for hours over 12/day or over 8 hrs on the 7th consecutive day. Elsewhere it's often voluntary employer policy.

No. Federal law only requires 1.5x for hours over 40/week. Double time is state-specific (mainly California) or employer policy.
Not by law. However, many employers voluntarily offer double time for holidays as a benefit.
