Today Philadelphia City Council voted 15 to 2 to add paid sick days to the 21st Century Minimum Wage and Benefits Standard. Workers that are employed by businesses that receive money from the city will now be able to earn paid sick days.
Thank you to Councilman Goode and all members of Council who voted for this important bill. Watch the vote take place and amazing remarks from Councilman Goode in the video below.
