STRONGSVILLE, Ohio, Aug. 5 /EMWNews/ -- The following

statement was issued by David Zanotti, President and CEO of the Ohio

Roundtable regarding the mandatory sick leave issue.



    "This is not about sick leave, this is not about achieving justice for

workers, this is about defeating a seriously flawed and economically

dangerous measure. Since the Governor has conceded this measure is

seriously flawed, we ask him to lead the effort to defeat mandatory sick

leave on the November ballot."



    The Ohio Roundtable encourages all Ohioans to contact Governor

Strickland at 614-466-3555 and express their concerns.
