Folks, this is unacceptable. Nearly 27 million U.S. workers do not have access to paid sick leave. That's why I've introduced the Healthy Families Act, legislation that would guarantee access to paid sick leave for every American. I need 100 supporters from your state to sign our petition demanding that the Senate support Universal Paid Sick Leave. Will you sign now? >> That means that millions of Americans who are recovering from an illness, have a sick child or family member, or are seeking preventative care, are forced to make an impossible choice: protect their health or their paycheck. No one should risk losing income just to take care of themselves or someone they love. That's why I'm introducing the Healthy Families Act, a bill that would guarantee access to paid sick time off. Republicans are refusing to support any bill that would help our working-class families, so we need to put pressure on every GOP Senator to pass this common-sense bill. I still need 100 supporters from your state to sign our petition demanding the Senate support Universal Paid Sick Leave. Will you sign now? >> Thank you, Kirsten Gillibrand |
