Friends, community, DC - we just won #PaidLeave4DC. Love you all.

I talked to @AnitaBondsDC just before today's session. I know this was tough, thank you for bravely standing with small biz! #PaidLeave4DC

[Uprise @upriseforgood]

.@RobertWhite_DC is sharing personal stories of mom's cancer, of near-fatal car accident, and now he is a father. THIS HERE is #PaidLeave4DC

[Dr America ✊🏽 @DrSriram]

Employer mandate fails! Thanks @CharlesAllenW6 @RobertWhite_DC @tweetelissa @AnitaBondsDC @BrianneKNadeau for supporting REAL #PaidLeave4DC

[Uprise @upriseforgood]

One step closer to #PaidLeave4DC! Thank you for standing with small biz @AnitaBondsDC!

[Uprise @upriseforgood]

@CMYMA I want to expand my small biz this year. How many $200 credits do I have to collect up before I can afford it? #PaidLeave4DC

[Uprise @upriseforgood]

I think the word @ChmnMendelson is looking for, to describe mandate credit, is "pittance" #PaidLeave4DC

[Uprise @upriseforgood]

Hey @CharlesAllenW6 this Ward 6 small biz thanks you for bravely standing up for #PaidLeave4DC!

[Uprise @upriseforgood]

Can't believe @CMBrandonTodd is going to sell out small biz to big corporate interests against #PaidLeave4DC. For shame!

[Uprise @upriseforgood]

@CMBrandonTodd Shame on you for betraying small businesses. We are watching today!

[Uprise @upriseforgood]

This small biz is all in for #PaidLeave4DC! #uprise

[Uprise @upriseforgood]

#PaidLeave4DC session has started at DC Council. We've worked so hard for this, hoping @AnitaBondsDC @CM_McDuffie will stand with us today!

[Uprise @upriseforgood]

@maustermuhle not cynical. Very real. Small biz cannot afford paid leave w/out citywide system. Mandate does nothing for us.

[Uprise @upriseforgood]

@rmpmcdermott #PaidLeave4DC plan helps all businesses. Evans plan punishes small biz. We want to provide it, need citywide system to afford

[Uprise @upriseforgood]

@AnitaBondsDC Show small biz you stand with us, our employees&families. Vote YES on #PaidLeave4DC and NO to employer mandate we can't afford
