Subject: Re: [IABS-Talk] Dignity in Pay Act
I have learned of new information regarding the Dignity in Pay Act which I
believe represents progress. A hearing has been set for Monday, May 20th
before the House Labor & Commerce Committee at 3:00PM in Capitol Building
Room 114. I believe this hearing may be streamed. Its purpose is to consider
Floor Amendment 3, a compromise which will eliminate 14C certificates by
2029.
Cordially,
Bill Reif
