Crossposted from the Washington Family Leave Coalition:
Washington lawmakers are studying two Paid Sick and Safe Days bills during this legislative session (House Bill 2508 and Senate Bill 6229) – and they need to hear from you!
Please contact your legislators now to tell them why Paid Sick and Safe Days are important for you and your family’s health and economic security.
And if you’re able, come down to Olympia to show your support for the legislation at these committee hearings:
- Tues, Jan 24, 1:30-3:30 pm, Cherburg Senate Hearing Room 4: Labor, Commerce & Consumer Protection Committee
- Wed, Jan 25, 1:30-3:30 pm, Joint Legislative Office Building, House Hearing Rm C: Labor and Workforce Development Committee
You can learn more about the proposed legislation in this handy overview.
