Virginia Steelworkers: Urge Your Governor to Strengthen Paid Sick Leave in HB 5/SB 199!

In Virginia, House Bill 5 / Senate Bill 199, a bill to create a paid sick leave program, is close to becoming law, but without changes it leaves workers behind. The bill now sits on the desk of Governor Abigail Spanberger, and we need immediate action to make it right. As written, it allows unequal treatment and could deny members of USW Local 8888 basic paid sick leave protections. Click “Start Writing” to tell the Governor to send HB 5/SB 199 back to the General Assembly and strengthen the bill for all working people!
