The private sector has trialed a four-day work week with varying levels of success. In addition, some countries have adopted policies attempting to implement some form of a four-day work week. For example, Belgium announced a reform package that gives workers the right to work the same number of hours but over four days instead of five, though employers have a right to refuse such a request.

What US politicians, if any, have advocated for a 4-day work week? What is known about their proposal?

What political mechanisms are available at a local, state, or national level to implement such a proposal? What barriers of governance exist?
