Provides line of duty sick leave for first responders who are diagnosed with or display symptoms of a pandemic virus

This bill provides paid sick leave for specific first responders who test positive for or show symptoms of a pandemic virus (defined as a WHO-classified virus triggering a state emergency declaration). It covers police officers, firefighters, EMTs, and paramedics, requiring employers to grant leave at their regular pay rate without reducing accrued sick leave. Employers cannot take adverse actions against staff using this leave, and the state will reimburse municipalities with fewer than 1 million residents for the costs. The leave applies only during pandemic-related illness or exposure, with written requests and medical documentation required.
