"For families in the lowest quartile of earners, 79 percent lack paid sick time."

"Paid sick leave also decreases turnover and its associated costs, increases employee morale and satisfaction and ultimately enhances profitability and success."

"I thank the Subcommittee for holding a hearing on the Healthy Families Act introduced in the House by Congresswoman Rosa DeLauro"

"Expanded access to paid sick days could help the state meet its cost-containment goals."
