Vermont Livable Wage Campaign
New Poll Released Showing
Vermonters Strong Support for Paid Sick Days
On Wed. May 27th at a press conference at the State House in Montpelier the
Vermont Livable Wage Campaign as part of the Paid Sick Day Coalition helped
launch Campaign 2010 - Paid Sick Days for Vermont.
The press conference also marked the release of a
poll conducted by the UVM Center for Rural Studies showing
nearly 9 in 10 Vermont voters surveyed think paid sick days would protect
working Vermonters’ health. In addition, more than three-quarters want the
legislature to create a workplace standard. This overwhelming support cuts
across the political spectrum: 69% of Republicans, 75% of Independents, and 87%
of Democrats. To view a summary of the poll click
