On the Seattle Channel’s City Inside Out, host C.R. Douglas profiles the paid sick days proposal in Seattle. He begins with a look at business, including Molly Moon’s Homemade Ice Cream – which provides paid sick days to their employees.

Douglas then moderates a discussion between Lisa Stone, Executive Director of Legal Voice, and George Allen, Senior V.P. at the Greater Seattle Chamber of Commerce.
