Political Quotes

On the recordMay 7, 2013
The so-called ``Working Families Flexibility Act'' would amend and would subvert the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 in order to allow private sector employers to compensate their employees instead of paying them overtime. It gives employers the legal cover to force employees to work more and to pay them less. What would improve the lives of working families would be an increase in the minimum wage. What would provide flexible workplaces would be to give adequate leave options under the Family and Medical Leave Act. Flexible workplaces provide competitive living wages for employees. Flexible workplaces provide sufficient sick-pay leave. H.R. 1406 does nothing to advance any of these proposals. ____________________
