Progressive Capitol Hill staffers demanded that they work less, proposing a 32-hour week in a letter sent to House and Senate leaders that was later withdrawn.
The letter sent from the Congressional Progressive Staff Association on Thursday stated that they want to have a “strong, diverse workforce prepared to help Congress deliver for the American people.” In order to accomplish this, the staffers claimed the best way to do so was to cut work hours and establish a rotating 32-hour work week for congressional staff. This is despite that in many instances, staff take off early on Fridays due to the regular in-session congressional schedule.
“By adopting a 32-hour workweek for staff on a rotating basis, you can accomplish these goals while retaining the productivity and quality of work you expect and deserve from your team. We urge you to consider piloting the program in your own offices and encouraging your fellow Members across your conference or caucus to do the same,” the staffers wrote. They claimed that the adjusted schedule would “improve worker satisfaction, increase staff retention in Congress, and model a more sustainable approach to work on a national level.”
“While Congress is always busy,” staffers added, “responsibilities often wax and wane based on the session calendar. Given the cyclical nature of the schedule, we propose implementing a 32-hour workweek for DC-based staff during district work periods and a 32-hour workweek for district-based staff while in-session. Doing so — without a reduction in pay — would allow both DC and distinct staff to be fully available around the clock throughout more intensive periods when the Member is in town while allowing for a more sustainable schedule when workloads are more manageable.”
On Friday the group withdrew the letter after backlash from both sides of the aisle. “The Congressional Progressive Staff Association hereby withdraws its recent letter to congressional leadership on a rotating 32-hour workweek,” the group said in a statement, per Politico. […]

Controlling Protein Is One of the Globalists’ Primary Goals
Between the globalists, corporate interests, and our own government, the food supply is being targeted from multiple angles. It isn’t just silly regulations and misguided subsidies driving natural foods away. Bird flu, sabotaged food processing plants, mysterious deaths of entire cattle herds, arson attacks, and an incessant push to make climate change the primary consideration for all things are combining for a perfect storm to exacerbate the ongoing food crisis.
The primary target is protein. Specifically, they’re going after beef as the environmental boogeyman. They want us eating vegetable-based proteins, lab-grown meat, or even bugs instead of anything that walked the pastures of America. This is why we launched a long-term storage prepper beef company that provides high-quality food that’s shelf-stable for up to 25-years.
At Prepper All-Naturals, we believe Americans should be eating real food today and into the future regardless of what the powers-that-be demand of us. We will never use lab-grown beef. We will never allow our cattle to be injected with mRNA vaccines. We will never bow to the draconian diktats of the climate change cult.
Visit Prepper All-Naturals and use promo code “veterans25” to get 25% off plus free shipping on Ribeye, NY Strip, Tenderloin, and other high-quality cuts of beef. It’s cooked sous vide, then freeze dried and packaged with no other ingredients, just beef. Stock up for the long haul today.
