STATE SENATOR CATHERINE PUGH
Senator Catherine Pugh isn't just Maryland's Senate Majority Leader: She's a small business owner who knows first-hand how important it is that employers take care of their employees.
Senator Pugh has passed over 100 bills since being elected in 1999, and she's been a tireless advocate on behalf of working families.
A believer that workers should never have to choose between taking care of their families and taking care of their work, Senator Pugh recently introduced the "Healthy Working Families Act" -- legislation that would provide Maryland workers with earned paid sick leave. She also worked with Maryland's Women Caucus on a minimum wage increase to $10.10, making a difference in the lives of families across Maryland.
