Paid Family & Medical Leave

You’ve been sick. Did you stay home?  Was your job at risk?  Who took care of your sick little kindergardener with fever?  You?  Was your job at risk?

Paid family and medical leave enables workers to earn time off to tend to a sick family member, take care of a new baby or newly adopted child or to take time to recuperate themselves.  We all need a fair shake.

Do you have a story to tell supporting paid family and medical leave? We would love to hear from you.  Please visit our Outreach Page to share your story.
