10h agoWorkers are asking Connecticut
lawmakers for more paid sick days.
"I am a
domestic worker. I clean houses. When I am sick, I have to go to work like this
because I can't afford to miss work," said Beatriz Moncada through a
translator.
Lawmakers are considering
two proposals. One would extend paid leave to all
private-sector workers. The other would
grant it to companies with more than 10 employees.
Small businesses
say paid sick days could cost them an exorbitant amount of money.
