Effective today, the N.L. minimum wage rate will increase from $12.75/hour to $13.20/hour. (This is not an April fools joke😋). Read our legal update to learn more! https://t.co/Xu9Vx7U6eZ

As Justice Sonia Sotomayor wrote in her dissent of the Texas law and her colleagues' decision to allow it:

"The Act is a breathtaking act of defiance—of the Constitution, of this Court’s precedents, and of the rights of women seeking abortions throughout Texas."

COVID-19 cases are ramping up and vaccines are rolling out. How will it impact your workplace? Can employers require employees to get #COVID19 tests or vaccines? What are the considerations for a workplace testing & vaccination policy? Get the answers at https://t.co/sBDbR3OQEC.

#nlpoli Please be kind to reporters taking part in the COVID-19 briefings. We're just doing our jobs - and sometimes that means making mistakes! Sometimes, that also means re-asking a question to get a better, fuller answer.

Thank you so much to everyone who advocated on this important issue and to the decision makers who listened to our concerns and changed the 4 hour support person rule!!!

Eastern Health announces that for women giving birth partners can now stay longer than 4 hours, but once they leave they can’t come back, so telling people to bring all the supplies they need #covid19nfld

[Brittany Keating @brittanykeating]

@CBCTheNational RHAs in NL have limited postpartum support person access to 4 hours post-delivery again. Is this a reasonable, evidence-based public health measure? Has this happened in other provinces? Ask moms about their standard of care under this rule!

[Brittany Keating @brittanykeating]

@NTVNewsNL @CBCNL @VOCMNEWS @SaltWireNetwork @StJohnsTelegram The public should hear from moms who gave birth last year with this restriction to show the impact it had on their post partial recovery, successful breast feeding, mental health, and standard of care. @CBCTheNational

[Brittany Keating @brittanykeating]

@NTVNewsNL @CBCNL @VOCMNEWS @SaltWireNetwork @StJohnsTelegram have any other jurisdictions imposed a similar partner support rule during COVID? I’m hearing about many that haven’t. Why us?

@PremierofNL @Johnrockdoc @EasternHealthNL many other jurisdictions haven’t taken away post-labour support person during peak COVID cases. Why here? What’s the logic? Support person is essential to mom’s mental health and recovery @PeterCBC @KellyAnneNTV

[Patty Hajdu @PattyHajdu]

I’ve spoken with Minister @Johnrockdoc tonight to offer federal assistance. We’re helping with contact tracing, and providing support with epidemiologists and our National Microbiology Lab. The people of Newfoundland and Labrador are strong, and we stand ready to support them.
