You forgot federal sick leave. Governor Baker cost me a week's pay when I got it this spring and had to quarantine for a week.

The Federal Government can't be expected to pay/mandate payment for every citizen's inconvenience and health problem.

You lost a week's pay because you couldn't work because you were ill. Not because some politician was mean and didn't pay you or tell your boss to pay you.

If they mandate something they need to provide the support. If they cannot afford it they shouldn't pass on those costs to citizens.
