Join the NYC Paid Sick Days Coalition for a Press Conference with healthcare providers and policy experts.
Assemble with us this Thursday, February 16 at Bellevue Hospital. We will meet on the west side of 1st Avenue near East 27th Street at 12:45pm. (Nearest subway: #6 train to 28th St.) The press conference will begin at 1pm.
We’ll be highlighting new data showing that paid sick days would provide millions of dollars in savings annually for NYC hospitals on emergency room costs.
