The ND House just killed a bill that had a do-pass recommendation from committee; the bill would have created a shared leave program for state employees so they could donate sick time / annual leave to a fellow worker. Gah! >,

Today, Sen. @ErinOban & I announced a proposal to create an Emergency Paid Leave Fund for ND workers affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. >�>
One way Dem-NPL legislators work hard for working people in ND is by supporting appropriate pay raises for our public employees. Here's the latest >
Dem-NPL legislative candidates urged the governor to extend workers compensation to ND educators & support staff at K-12 public schools, universities & colleges who contract or are exposed to COVID-19 through the course of employment. https://t.co/T9Rhacu16X
I agree: we need to invest in ND to make it an even better place to live & work. That includes daycare, paid family leave, great education at every level, affordable housing & more. When many workers can work from anywhere, let's help make ND their choice. https://t.co/FLYhPSF8CG

The last time the federal & state minimum wage was ⬆️was 12 years ago today. While the minimum wage has been stuck at $7.25, the cost of living sure hasn't stayed the same. A person earning minimum wage for 40 hrs/wk will earn ~$15k a year, hardly enough for basic necessities. >
You can prevent the spread of #coronavirus (COVID-19) & the flu by washing your hands relentlessly & staying home when you're not feeling well. But the latter is hard if your job doesn't offer sick leave; 46% of NDs private sector workforce cant earn a single paid sick day.
During ND's 2021 legislative session, Rep. LaurieBeth Hager (D-Fargo) proposed that we gradually #RaiseTheWage in our state with HB 1341. Her bill didn't pass, which is unfortunate because every person deserves a living wage.
