Robert Reich~33 million of our nation’s workers have no paid sick days.
Only in America do we call working people ‘essential’ but deny them paid sick leave.
Teresa Alves de Azevedo@rbreich paid sick days are mandatory in Portugal, as are vacation days (up to 25/year). Oh, and election day always falls on a sunday, so everyone can vote
Aerosea@TeresaAAzevedo @rbreich Same in Australia. Mandatory sick leave and vote on a Saturday. If you are working on a Saturday then vote during the week. No lineups even though compulsory voting.
