Congressman Mike Kelly is introducing a new bill that would extend paid leave to health care workers who contract the coronavirus.
The Essential Workforce Parity Act would also offer liability protections to hospitals and other medical providers from certain lawsuits during the COVID-19 emergency declaration.
Kelly says that doctors and nurses on the front lines need to be treated fairly if they get sick during the pandemic.
The bill would add onto the Families First Coronavirus Relief Act which passed earlier this year.
