Thank you to all the workers, parents, and caregivers who advocated and made your voices heard!
Thank you @SenGonzalez33 for being a legislative champion for #PaidSickDays!
Breaking: @CAgovernor signs #SB616 (@SenGonzalez33), increasing paid sick and safe days for California Workers.
Having access to paid sick days is crucial for the health and well-being of California working families!
Access to #PaidSickDays is crucial for the health and financial security of California workers and their families.
Urge @CAGovernor to sign #SB616. We need more #PaidSickDaysNow! https://t.co/rAA550ZQ3q
It’s time for California to catch up. Our #PaidSickDay program is far behind when compared to other states.
@CAgovernor - Let’s ensure that the success of our state extends to the health and well-being of California’s workers. We need #SB616NOW! #SB616
Amazing that realtor & slumlord lobbyists are basically the only voices in San Jose willing to support @MattMahanSJ’s attempt to block modest wage increase & paid family leave for City workers falsely claiming it threatens services despite common sense proposals that avert cuts.
Exciting News! #SB616 to expand paid sick leave to 5 days per year for all CA workers just passed the Assembly! The US lacks national standards & many Californians only have 3 days of sick leave a year. We need #PaidSickLeave.
#SB616 - to extend Paid Sick Days to 5 days gets out of Assembly! All our unfinished business getting done today. The other Gonzalez getting it done! Huge props to Senator Lena Gonzalez!
Great news! #SB616 (@SenGonzalez33) passes out of the Assembly!
We are one step closer to more #PaidSickDays for California workers - 3 Days is not enough.
With COVID 19 emergency sick leave gone, it’s time to fill in the gaps in California’s safety net with #SB616.
Take action with us and contact your legislators today: https://t.co/iMisBRhpbL.
Workers, caregivers, advocates, and Coalition partners rallied yesterday in LA to call on #CALeg and the @CAgovernor to pass #SB616 (@SenGonzalez33).
It’s time to increase California’s #PaidSickandSafeDays! 3 Days is not enough.

Great News! #SB616 @SenGonzalez33 PASSES out of the Senate Suspense Hearing and moves to the Senate floor.
Let's keep up the momentum; contact your #CAleg representative today. Californians need more sick and safe days NOW!

We need more childcare providers and without rate reform it’s not happening. Providers deserve a fair income and parents need more options!
As I sit calling through dozens of entirely booked childcare providers trying to find a slot for my son this is becoming more clear!

#SB227 the #SafetyNetforAll workers Act has passed out of the CA Senate Appropriations Committee! Momentum continues to build in support of unemployment benefits for excluded immigrant workers continues to grow! TY @SenMariaEDurazo for your continuous leadership!
@CityofSanJose Read the letter signed by 100+ non-profits and community leaders urging the City Council to reject the short-sighted and ill-advised proposal to disinvest in affordable housing
#Happening
The @SCCgov Board of Supervisors today approved $31.1 million in funding for three projects that will create a total of 201 affordable housing units in Mountain View, San José & Santa Clara.
More than 1,450 units are in operation funded by the $950-mil housing bond.
🚨New @IRLEUCB WP🧵🚨
Michael Reich, @_CarlMcPherson, and I look at large #minimumwage increases to $15 in CA & NY.
Can minimum wages increase the number of jobs, as monopsony models predict? Yes! Esp. after selection and attenuation are addressed!
