YES PLEASE!!
Employers will go around this with ease. What they will do is not give raises, and let the overtime make up the difference in pay. You still work 40 hours/week and still make the same money, and your employer and/or ADP gets to do more paperwork. It's a waste of time and paperwork.
I highly suspect of anything a politician thinks is a good idea.
Love this idea mental health wise all companies need to follow suit
This will NEVER HAPPEN. We can barely survive with 2 incomes. Do four 10 hour work days.

If they want a 4.day work week, let them take the pay cut also. This is OUR money, screw them all.

What? But I need 70 hours a week to afford anything.
I'm all for a four-day workweek, but I think 32 hours is asking for too much. Four 10-hour days would be much easier to digest for employers. In fact, some countries have already implemented this, and studies have shown that working Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday (essentially, working no more than two days in a row) did not decrease overall productivity or even increased it in some cases. But I'll support it no matter which way it happens. I'm glad to see that there are elected leaders who actually seem to care about ordinary Americans, and not just their corporate donors.
The stock image editing is so cringe. He had a a good view point why is your editing so bad?
Really ? That's all you have to worry about? Private companies should not be governed!!! They are PRIVATELY OWNED . they should be able to contact with their workforce as they choose!! And since government employees are paid more and work less than anyone in the private sector I don't think our public employees actually doing less for us is what we need?? This guy is an idiot, no wonder everyone is moving out of that state as quick as u-hauls are available. GOOD LUCK guys, use your votes wiser next time 🤷🏼
Which day would you rather have off Monday or Friday? I'd rather have Monday off during football season. 😃
Let businesses make their own decisions. Many businesses cannot be closed three days a week.
Honestly…until our state isn’t a hellhole anymore….I definitely don’t have confidence in any bills created by our senators at the federal level.
i knew it was a Californian before i even looked him up
A 4 day work week for 1 job so having a 4 day work week would allow you to have 2 jobs. That's what they really want
This is my schedule most weeks
France. I remember working in America for a French company and getting upset that my counterparts in France, never seemed to be at work.
I'm wit it😏

🎶I’m just a bill. On Capital Hill.🎶
Kids should get the same….. where is their 4 day school week?
These clowns in suits need to take a paycut that's what needs to happen!!!!

People weren't born on to earth to work 40hrs a week.
