Bernie Sanders Pushes Bill , to Adopt 4-Day Workweek.
The senator introduced the "Thirty-Two Hour Work Week Act" on March 14, NBC News reports.

The number of hours needed to attain overtime pay would also be reduced.
Time-and-a-half pay would be required for
any workday lasting longer than 8 hours.
If a workday exceeds 12 hours,
an employee would receive double pay.
The plan would go into effect over the
course of four years, NBC News reports. .
Moving to a 32-hour workweek with
no loss of pay is not a radical idea, Sen. Bernie Sanders, via statement.
Today, American workers are over
400 percent more productive than
they were in the 1940s. , Sen. Bernie Sanders, via statement.
And yet, millions of Americans are
working longer hours for lower
wages than they were decades
ago. That has got to change, Sen. Bernie Sanders, via statement.
Sanders went on to talk about
AI's place in the workforce.
The financial gains from the major
advancements in artificial intelligence,
automation and new technology must
benefit the working class, not just
corporate CEOs and wealthy
stockholders on Wall Street, Sen. Bernie Sanders, via statement.
It is time to reduce the stress level
in our country and allow Americans
to enjoy a better quality of life. , Sen. Bernie Sanders, via statement.
It is time for a 32-hour workweek
with no loss in pay. I look forward
to the discussion this week, Sen. Bernie Sanders, via statement
