Nah, the Republican Congress will address anything remotely resembling workers rights when hell freezes over. And with the way the GOP pushes for dumping more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, that's going to be a looong time.
Most gov contractors are not, really, unionized and already get sick days. Most actually do not get anything, including unions, though there is a fed union so there is that. Course, contractors are not eligible to be part of that, for some reason.I am pretty sure the 300000 is mostly about flex peoples. The ones who can work 55.9 hours per week and not get any bennies at all, and so long as they do not go over 8 per day you don't even have to do overtime.
A civil servant colleague of mine bitched about this this morning. "The taxpayers shouldn't have to pay for this!" When I pointed out that the taxpayers pay for HIS sick leave, he stomped out of my office.
"Congress is expected to take up Obama’s call to enact a national mandate for paid sick leave immediately after it eliminates Planned Parenthood, makes gay marriage go away forever, and figures out how Hillary Clinton killed four American diplomatic personnel in Benghazi."
Now hold on just a second there, VandeGraf! What REALLY chaps my hide to a rosy red is when you call the Prez a Kenyan! The man is obviously Irish! Come on, "O'Bama"? And that little leprechaun jig he does everytime always when he deplanes down the steps from Air Force One. He's Idish, and you'll not be convincin' me otherwise, lads, no sar!
Obama is terrified that Walker will cost him a third term.
Will someone please tell Scotty that Obama isn't running any more?

I have a God given right to spread ebola to my coworkers, and I will be dead in the ground (possibly from ebola) before Barack Hussein Obama stops me!
