The Massachusetts House moved forward on two separate bills creating employee sick‑leave banks for individual state workers.

The committee on public service reported that House No. 4230, an act to establish a sick leave bank for James Caruso, an employee of the Massachusetts Department of Transportation, "ought to pass," and the matter was scheduled for consideration by the House. Mister Donato of Medford moved to suspend the rules and the bill was advanced to second reading; the House then ordered the bill to a third reading.

Separately, the House took up House No. 1590, an act establishing a sick leave bank for Eric Inaqui, an employee of the Trial Court of the Commonwealth. Mister Walsh of Peabody moved to amend the bill by inserting an emergency preamble. The amendment was adopted and the House passed the bill to be engrossed as amended.

Committee reports recommending that the accompanying bills "ought to pass" were read on the floor; procedural motions to suspend rules and to advance the bills were made by named members. No roll-call vote or final enactment for either bill is recorded in the provided transcript segments; one bill was ordered to third reading and the other was passed to be engrossed as amended.
