ND Senate Passes Bill Protecting Employers From COVID-19 Lawsuits

(Bismarck, ND)  --  The North Dakota Senate is advancing a bill that will protect employers from COVID-19-related lawsuits.  Under the measure, employees will be barred from suing their employers if they think they contracted COVID-19 on the job.  Supporters say it protects smaller businesses, while opponents say it gives companies that intentionally ignored health guidance immunity.
