Nathan Fletcher, Chair of the San Diego County Board of Supervisors was excited for workers that Governor Gavin Newsom and Legislature reached an agreement on COVID-19 Paid Sick Leave and released the following statement:

“Hard-working San Diegans should not have to make the difficult choice between protecting their health and providing their family with food or a roof over their head,” said Chair Fletcher. “I advocated for the extension of paid sick leave for employees who contract COVID-19 and fully support the agreement. I want to thank Governor Newsom,  Senate President pro-Tempore Atkins, and Assembly Speaker Rendon for their leadership and look forward to this agreement becoming law.”
