I think it is hilarious because Elon says he is and this other group is calling him out on it

Elon Musk, while destroying Twitter, is still a massive advocate of abusing employees (https://gizmodo.com/twitter-elon-musk-silicon-valley-tech-layoffs-1850470520) and very much against the strikes (https://finance.yahoo.com/news/elon-musk-says-auto-union-201310505.html)

It's nice seeing Elon being called out on his anti worker shit, considering the lack of blowback on this

You are right

It does mandate 2 days out of a pay period, the bill does suck

What is interesting, is while the MAGA wants full RTO and Biden via Executive Order is also trying to push full RTO (just ask the EPA staff). The Senate has this bill pushing for some not full RTO. I don't support this bill, but I can't help but wonder if the Senate is admitting some weakness here

Broader context is Biden is trying to force RTO on all federal workers

Which make this bill a shock

You are absolutely correct

A major problem my friends who work for gov is that Biden been trying to push RTO, even as his own agency heads work from home, so I must have missed the poison pill when I read this article

Amen

This legislation emerges on the heels of efforts by senators like “Family-Friendly” Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) to undo remote work, which makes it easier for workers to start and grow families, guidelines established during the pandemic.

I thought the article was just mocking right wingers

Edit:

It does mock right wingers, and I read the bill it doesn’t look like it has a poison pill besides the potentially harmful twice in a pay period (which is two weeks)

Remote work has been a target of self styled “pro-family” conservatives. For instance, Sen. Joni Ernst (R-Iowa) voiced worries about federal employees moving to less expensive areas but retaining high pay (The absolute horror!). These arguments contribute to a larger political discourse on the pros and cons of family-friendly remote work.

If it was white supremacist, I wouldn’t share it. The obsession with population decline is weird, but they have gone after Meloni and Musk for being virtues signalers who cares more about culture fights than families. So I guess they can’t be all bad
