More details to this question:
In December of 2016, my company gave a plantwide raise of $2/hour with no stipulations. We have a point system for being tardy or absent. Now they are taking the raise away from people who have accumulated 5 points since then. Can they do this?

Yes, as long as they are meeting minimum wage and overtime law for non-exempt employees.
