Lawmakers Should Approve Paid Sick Leave Legislation
Korey Capozza, a health policy analyst at UC-Berkeley's Center for Labor Research and Education, in an opinion piece urged lawmakers to approve a bill (AB 2716) that would extend paid sick days to all employees in California. She writes, "As AB 2716 awaits a decision in the Assembly, it's important for legislators to consider the compelling benefits guaranteed paid sick days would have for public health and our working moms across the state."
