One State Senator's Passion for Paid Leave.
Manage episode 340918458 series 3314587
It takes one person's commitment to a cause to create a wave of change. That is true about my guest Connecticut State Senator Julie Kushner, who represents the 24th Senate District that includes Danbury, New Fairfield, Sherman and some parts of Bethel. She has led a life of advocacy and helping others, including her 2018 campaign aimed at getting CT Paid Leave passed in the state. In the CT General Assembly, Senator Kushner is the Senate Chair of the Labor and Public Employees Committee and along with the coalition and others, they crafted a well written and comprehensive law that passed the next year.
Senator Kushner is happy that the law she helped to get passed is now being used by her constituents in so many various ways.
