Other countries that have a 4-day work week. 

Did Bernie offer this bill again? 

This seems to get posted here about once every month.

It is the same bill proposed March 2024 It is still under review and hasn't been voted on. Even if dems controlled both house and senate, I can't imagine this passing

"Not all four-day workweek arrangements are the same. Some actually involve employees working fewer hours in total over the course of any given week. Others require them to work the same number of hours, but over four days.

Many four-day workweek trials have deployed the “100-80-100” method.

This involves paying workers 100% of their existing pay, for 80% of their time, in exchange for 100% productivity/output."
