HARTFORD — State Rep. John Rigby during today’s Appropriations Committee meeting opposed a controversial proposal aimed at requiring Connecticut employers to provide paid sick leave to their employees. No other state in the nation has such a law. Business owners throughout the state say the proposal would hurt their ability to not only thrive in Connecticut but even survive.
