Dear Friends and Neighbors,
Economic resiliency for workers and businesses is one of the major goals as the Commonwealth ends the COVID-19 ” State of Emergency” on June 15. This week, I joined with my colleagues to vote in the affirmative on H.3702 An Act providing for Massachusetts COVID-19 emergency paid sick leave. This bill builds on the previous legislative efforts to stabilize the unemployment system and support employers and employees. More specifically, this legislation:
- Supports COVID-19 Emergency Sick Leave workers, including municipal employees
- Reduces spike in Unemployment costs for employers and small businesses
This legislation now awaits the Governor’s signature.

Yours in Service,
Denise
