Interviews with workers without sick time benefits on proposed legislation in city council that would extend a minimum number of paid sick days to the 40% of Philadelphians who currently lack them. The Philadelphia City Council bill is called "Promoting Healthy Families and Workplaces." Call your legislators and ask them to co-sponsor and vote for legislation that would provide paid sick days.

On this month's show: Philadelphia's budget cuts and how they are affecting neighborhood rec centers and libraries. We’ll also hear about a push for more paid sick days for Philly workers, and about Baltimore hotel workers’ fight for justice. Plus we’ll have music and other news.
