Me, too. Especially because she is anti paid family leave.

No she is anti paid family leave for suburban residents subsidized by DC taxpayers.

This. The bill was poorly written so it benefits more NON-dc residents than actual residents. This should have been a pay roll tax set up.

It is a payroll tax. See the article linked above. DC residents are NOT funding the program.

Yes, I am fine with paid family leave for DC residents, but the current bill is strange for having DC taxpayers pay for MD and VA residents to get leave. They should have changed the structure of the program.

What are you talking about? It's an employment tax. DC residents will not pay into the program.

"Bowser said that while she supports the broader principle of paid family leave, she remains concerned that the bill passed by the Council in December would be too expensive and too heavily burden the businesses that will be responsible for paying for it."

You can't link to a single article in the current. The whole issue is posted as a big .pdf

I agree teachers deserve retro pay.

The last time this issue was raised her most comments said that the teachers were already well compensated. Was disappointing.

I read an article in the Northwest current yesterday, and I had no idea Mayor Bowser refuses to give teachers a raise. How pathetic of her. Instead, she embeds herself with developers and PR opportunities.

The articles author is a teacher at my sons school, I feel furious for those teachers.

We need her opposer to support retro pay for these poor people (no pun intended), and then they will have my vote.

BYE BOWSER.
