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 bill would change the standard workweek in America from 40 to 32 hours without losing pay.

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.

And yet, millions of Americans are working longer hours for lower wages than they were decades ago.

That has got to change, Sen.

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.

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.

I look forward to the discussion this week, Sen.
