New York City Council Committee on Civil Service and Labor will be holding a hearing on Intro 800-A, a bill that would require city employers to provide paid personal time to employees. You are a legislative aide to a council member and will need to prepare your boss before the hearing.
Create a legislative fact sheet to help the council member understand the bill and decide whether your member should vote for or against Intro 800-A. The fact sheet should be a 1-2 page document containing essential information including:
1) Problem or background information that explains why this legislation is needed;
2) Pre-existing research and data on the issue;
3) Summary of legislation detailing what the bill would specifically accomplish;
4) Similar legislation or laws in other jurisdictions;
5) Stakeholders involved (potential supporters and oppositions); and
6) Three potential questions that press might ask and the answers to those questions.
