Dear CRA Members,
As we approach the final days of the California legislative session it looks like we escaped without a bill on vaccine mandates and/or an extension of COVID paid sick leave. I just received word from the Assemblymember, who was leading the charge to extend the COVID supplemental sick leave, that he was not able to get the support to pass legislation to extend supplemental sick leave past the September 30th sunset.
Part of the reason why the author did not pursue the extension was due to the advocacy of CRA and the coalition in opposition to the extension. You can read our letter HERE.
While we are not anticipating it, we will continue to monitor this issue if there is an effort by the Governor, post the September 14th recall election, to extend the sick leave via an Executive Order.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Rachel
