A vote on a measure to give Chicago workers more paid leave is on hold for now as the city's business community argues the plan would be bad for their bottom lines post-pandemic.

Workers rights groups say the pandemic made it clear how important it is for employees to have ample paid time off. They say it protects families caring for each other and keeps workers protected so they don't lose income during a family's health crisis.

"As a working mother for me and many others it is difficult to ask for a day off from the employer because there is no law mandating it," said nanny Isabel Santos through a translator. "We must find a balanced approach to paid leave, one that supports our workers while also recognizing the unique and vital role that businesses play in our communities," said Chauncey Rice of the Illinois Retail Merchants Association.
