Everyone gets sick. Not everyone has time to get better. Join the coalition to support earned paid sick days for workers in Austin!

And with that, #atxcouncil makes Austin the first city in the south to have a paid sick days ordinance! Thank you to everyone who came out tonight, and worked for months and months to get this passed. ❤️ 💪#SickOfThis

Austin resident: How can we have trust in the process if we make change in our local community and then the #txlege comes in and overrides our elected officials? #ATXCouncil #tribfest18
