    The data is in & the time is now to modernize work culture for the better. I'm reintroducing the 32-Hour Workweek Act to allow workers to begin reclaiming their time, and their lives, with no loss of pay.

    NEW: @RepMarkTakano saw undisclosed political influencer spending in California's gubernatorial election last week, and he wants Congress to do something about it. I spoke with Takano about his P.A.I.D. Act and how Congress + the FEC can start to regulate the industry.👇👇👇
