"about 41 percent of Virginia workers do not have access to paid sick days. That’s about 1.2 million workers." virginiamercury.com/2019/07/…
.@LeviStraussCo's new #paidleave policy recognizes the needs of workers across the lifespan-whether they are caring for a new child, spouse or aging parent. It's time for #paidleaveforall so all people have this critical protection. #FAMILYAct. @DebraLNess fortune.com/2020/02/27/levi-…

Lack of #paidsickdays makes outbreaks worse. Paid sick time will protect the health of all New Yorkers! #makeNYnext #paidsickdaysNY healthline.com/health-news/c…
The vast majority of New York City employers support paid sick time and say there has been no effect on business costs, hiring, or employee hours. Let’s make #paidsickdays the law statewide! #MakeNYnext #PaidSickDaysNY @ABetterBalance @PowherNY

No person should have to choose between their health and their job. It’s time the state made paid sick leave law for every worker. #PaidSickDays #MakeNYNext

With no #paidsickdays, too many workers are forced to jeopardize their health or risk their financial security. Let’s #makeNYnext to guarantee this basic workplace right across the state.

Women still disproportionately shoulder caregiving responsibilities, and without access to #paidsickdays, it’s even harder to work and care for a family. New York can advance gender equality and boost #equalpay by making paid sick time the law statewide! #paidsickdaysNY

We call @AndreaSCousins, @CarlHeastie, and the New York State Legislature to keep #paidsickdays in the budget! Over 1 million workers in our state still lack access to any paid sick time.

We stand with our NY partners fighting to keep paid sick days in the budget today. #PaidSickDays #MakeNYNext #PaidSickDaysNY
Paid sick time is an essential public health tool—stopping the spread of disease & keeping our families healthy. New York needs #paidsickdays! #paidsickdaysNY abetterbalance.org/resources…

Every worker in New York State needs #paidsickdays. Thank you for your support of a statewide law, @NYGovCuomo! #paidsickdaysNY #makeNYnext auburnpub.com/blogs/eye_on_n…
Without #paidsickdays, workers are less likely to seek the preventive care they need. Tell the New York State Legislature to protect the health of our communities! #makeNYnext #paidsickdaysNY bit.ly/3abgFcx
Having time to recover from the flu or care for a sick child shouldn't depend on where you live or the nature of your job. All people need #paidsickdays! #MakeNYNext #PaidSickDaysNY
No worker in New York should be forced to choose between their health and a paycheck. #Paidsickdays are the law in New York City, Westchester and 31 other jurisdictions around the country. It's time for #paidsickdaysNY! #MakeNYNext npwf.info/37ZZmtr

"Access to paid sick days shouldn’t depend on where you live. [...] we resolve to pass a national #paidsickdays standard and urge members of Congress to support and pass the Healthy Families Act." #MakeNYNext #PaidSickDaysNY #HFAnow npwf.info/391fuMF
Ridiculous! People who work closely with the public - like restaurant workers - are actually LESS likely to have #paidsickdays. #PaidSickDaysNY #MakeNYNext
#Paidsickdays are critical to public health and children's health. If we #makeNYnext, working people would have time to care for a sick child and seek preventive care without risking their economic security. #PaidSickDaysNY npwf.info/3bApv4P
We need to #makeNYnext by enacting #paidsickdaysNY AND continue to fight for a national #paidsickdays policy like the #HFAnow! npwf.info/2TfXZ4y
Working sick costs the national economy $234 billion annually in lost productivity. States, cities and counties across the country are addressing the issue by enacting #paidsickdays. It's time to #makeNYnext! #PaidSickDaysNY npwf.info/2Viqgd6
