Notability

[edit]

Wikidea, I am considering nominating this page for deletion on a couple of grounds. This bill has merely been proposed, has not passed committee, has not passed a chamber of Congress, has not been signed into law. Additionally it looks to be only supported/sponsored by one party. It is a relatively recent bill. It lacks critical scoring by government and non-governmental organizations. I only get a handful of news results when I search for "Reward Work Act." Why is this article notable? Classicwiki (talk) If you reply here, please ping me. 19:54, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Classicwiki, fair questions. There's an enormous literature on codetermination, or the right of people to vote at work, and a majority OECD countries have some law to achieve it. What's particularly interesting about this is it's the first time it's been proposed in the USA. It's obviously unlikely to pass - at least before the 2018 elections or 2020 elections - but the USA is pretty unique in lawmaking being very slow. There are quite a lot of pages - under "Category:United States proposed federal legislation" (which you've just reminded me to add - thanks) for Bills like this, many of which will never pass, but are incredibly important in shaping polic debates at federal and state level.
