As Businesses Reopen, A Fight Is Brewing Over Worker Safety Lawsuits
Republican Senate Leader Mitch McConnell insists any coronavirus relief bill must protect employers from lawsuits filed by workers who get sick. Workers' rights advocates oppose such a move.
When is it safe for people to go back to work?
That's the question both employers and workers are asking, as businesses around the country start to open doors shuttered by the coronavirus.
Workers want assurances they aren't putting themselves at risk. And employers want to know they won't be sued if workers get sick.
