Lawmakers in the state Senate approved a bill overturning new sick leave protections that voters had approved by referendum in November 2024 .

The bill is now headed for the desk of Republican Gov. Mike Kehoe , who suggested on Friday he would sign it.

Employers would no longer be obligated to provide workers with one hour of sick leave for every 30 hours they work, capped at 56 hours per year.
