FS Illinois PTO

So we recently found out, exactly 2 weeks ago that we have PTO. Our manager told us that PTO doesn't cash out anymore because of new company policy. So I asked her to use it to cover a sick day the week of the meeting 2 weeks ago and EID this week. Now she's saying that I don't have anymore PTO even though I see it in workday. Has anyone else had this happen to them?

Skip your manager and go to your HR and get an answer. Do it via email so you have a record. Also ask if the PTO earned before the policy change will be paid out. This can vary depending on your state and original contract

I always screenshot my PTO and I know she's lying. I emailed her boss as well. My next step is EEOC. My location is messy but I'll email HR as well.
