Nursing home aides and home care aides could see a two dollar an hour reduction in their pay on Sunday.
That's when a pay increase approved during the pandemic expires.
Robert White has two sons with disabilities who need home aides for the tasks of daily life.
He says the aides aren't paid much anyway, and losing the pay increase could increase turnover.
"Can you imagine a different face showing up every day, someone that you don't know, to take care of your toileting needs and give you a shower? That's what we're facing with the turnover crisis that we're having in this field," says White.
