1945 Correspondence Regarding the Gwynne Bill and Fair Wage Labor Standard Act, 1945-05-17
The Mid-West Creamery Company is requesting support from Congressman George Schwabe for the Gwynne Bill (H.R. 2788) which aims to limit the time in which an employee can recover damages under the Fair Wage Labor Standard Act. They express concern about the uncertainty and potential liability that comes with new interpretations of the Act, and believe that such limitations are necessary to protect businesses from unexpected financial burdens. Congressman Schwabe responds in agreement, stating that he believes the bill is meritorious and should be enacted into law without delay.
