This question resolves YES if any US state imposes any kind of restriction on typical hourly employees working more than 35 hours per week. This restriction could be simply mandating overtime pay, but other restrictions will count so long as they are clearly intended to reduce the standard workweek to 35 hours or less.

Fine print:

"Typical hourly employee" means any non-tipped hourly employee making less than the median hourly wage in the state at the time of resolution.

DC counts as a state for purposes of this market.

If the federal government implements restrictions of this type, then this counts as every state implementing these restrictions for the purposes of this market.

It seems that the only(?) place the 35 hour workweek has been implemented successfully is France, which adopted this in 2000 (see the english wikipedia article).
