    The House passed a bill Monday night that significantly scaled back the paid sick-leave program it had tried to en­act days ear­lier. Democrats and admin officials billed it as a technical corrections bill. w/ ⁦@nataliewsj⁩ ⁦@siobhanehughes⁩https://www.wsj.com/articles/house-democrats-scale-back-paid-leave-program-in-coronavirus-aid-bill-11584424805 …

        Democratic aides were alarmed by the changes, which were passed with no objections because House lawmakers are away from Washington. The changes weren’t shown to most lawmakers before the vote.

        Healthcare employers warned lawmakers and admin officials that the original bill could have led to a shortage of vital healthcare workers. The new House bill excludes those workers from paid family leave, and lets Labor Dept. exclude them from 2 wks paid sick-leave mandate, too.

        Section 3105 of the new bill establishes a special rule that says "an employer of an employee who is a health care provider or an emergency responder may elect to exclude such employee from" the FMLA provisions. The bill gives the Labor secretary authority to implement the rule.

        To clarify earlier tweet: Those employees are not automatically excluded. The Labor secretary has wide discretion to implement the rule (the legislation doesn't say, for example, who qualifies as a health care worker) and industries are pushing for broad interpretation.

        It’s terribly unethical that people helping the sick are denied sick leave. Loyalty goes both ways. Soldiers know if they’re wounded in battle, the Army will go all-out to save them. If Army was run by hospital lobbyists, they’d save money by shooting the wounded like lame horses

        The GOP was holding up the correction, is this the final compromise?
