Dear Lucas,
Even if it took political pressure to force her hand, I'm glad that Speaker Quinn has ended her three-year, single-handed obstruction of paid sick leave.
Working New Yorkers should never have to choose between their jobs and their health.
I'm gratified that the plan includes my suggestion to give businesses a year to prepare before the law is implemented.
Working together - instead of strong-arming alone - we can keep building a New York where working families and the businesses that employ them can all do well.
Join our campaign today so New Yorkers won't have to sit in the waiting room while their leaders wait for the optimum political moment, instead of fighting to give them the opportunity and respect they deserve every day.
Yours truly,
