A second hearing on a statewide earned sick days bill (A-2354), has been scheduled in the Assembly Labor Committee for Monday, October 27, 2014 at 10:00 a.m.

The hearing will be an opportunity for our coalition and its many progressive partners to make the case for guaranteeing earned sick days to all New Jersey workers.

We will seek to prove that this policy is not only good for workers and public health, but also enhances local businesses. This law would create a moral and level playing field for workers and certainly boost employee performance and morale.

We sincerely thank Assemblywoman Pamela Lampitt (D-6) and Assemblyman Raj Mukherji (D-33) for their sponsorship of this bill in the Assembly. Once again, it is a testament to your hard work that this bill has come this far. With your continued support, we will succeed in achieving a statewide earned sick days law. Please be sure to join us on Monday, October 27th in Trenton.
