DFL legislators introduce bill guaranteeing paid sick time
A coalition of labor, faith and community groups is hoping to make Minnesota the fourth state in the country to guarantee paid sick time off for workers.
“For those of us who have had paid time off, we often take it for granted,” said Dan McGrath, executive director of TakeAction Minesota, one of the groups backing a bill introduced by DFL lawmakers this week. “But there are a million working people in our state who don’t have that option.”
