Previously, opposition from business interests had blocked any progress on paid sick leave. In 2010, however, the first gubernatorial candidate to run and win under the new landscape campaigned on a promise of paid sick days. One year later, he supported paid sick leave once elected, together with the legislature made up of a majority of other lawmakers elected through the small-donor democracy program.\r\n\r\nThe state\u2019s paid sick day law is ultimately a testament to what happens when the paradigm of how we elect representatives shifts and wealthy interests lose their stranglehold over policy discussions. Freed from reliance on large checks from lobbyists and the chamber of commerce, state elected leaders were able to focus on the needs of more voters, starting on the campaign trail and continuing in office. This has led to transformative policies for everyday Americans such as paid sick leave coverage, healthier food choices in schools, and sweeping consumer protections."}},{"acf_fc_layout":"layout_pull_quote","_acfe_flexible_toggle":"","component_pull_quote":{"quote":"The only chance we have at passage is because of the Citizens\u2019 Election Program.
