COLUMBUS, Ohio -- One of the state's major unions is pursuing a proposal that would require companies to grant sick days, an issue that could wind up on the November 2008 ballot and help drive voter turnout for the Democratic nominee for president.

The measure, being pushed by Service Employees International Union District 1199, would require Ohio companies with at least 25 employees to grant at least seven sick days a year.

The union, which represents 28,000 health care and social service workers in Ohio, Kentucky and West Virginia, submitted a petition with 1,800 signatures to Attorney General Marc Dann earlier this month.
