4. To put this in perspective, Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway owns BNSF, one of the nation's largest rail companies One day last week, Buffett's net worth increased by $1.38 BILLION. That's enough to pay for 15 DAYS of paid sick leave for the entire workforce for two years — PolitiTweet.org

3. The railroad companies can certainly afford it. Providing 15 days of paid sick leave would cost the industry roughly $688 million per year Last year, railroad companies generated over $23 BILLION in profit https://t.co/e1rvIbakcB — PolitiTweet.org
