Thanks for suggesting I look it up, I found this:
https://www.congress.gov/bill/118th-congress/house-bill/1332/text
This is a great example of something that addresses the concerns I have, I assumed you already saw this since you seem to be informed on the issue. Are there any more like it that can potentially address any other concerns I mentioned before?
Bare in mind, the amendment proposed in that house bill does not address any of the following:
- It does not require employers to pay workers the same weekly pay for fewer hours (i.e., no guaranteed wage preservation).
- It does not require employers to adjust hourly wages upward to compensate for lost hours.
- It does not establish a new minimum wage or cost-of-living adjustment.
None of the current FLSA text mandates any kind of salary or wage calculation, so the amendment has to include it if that's the solution proposed, which it seemingly is not. Again, you say I can look this stuff up and it's all available and this is all I could find. Surely you know more than me, right?
