We’ve been on the frontlines keeping the country running so other people can safely work from home.

With #COVID19 vaccine eligibility expanding, it’s time to talk about what that means for people working in retail.

You have questions?

We have answers. https://t.co/tffQaAjJc4

[Paid Leave for All @PaidLeaveforAll]

We invest in roads and bridges because they enable us to go to work, improve quality of life, and make the economy more productive. We must invest in care infrastructure for the same reasons, and that starts with #paidleave.

We need #PaidLeaveForAll to #BuildBackBetter.

Caring for yourself or your family in times of need should never cost you your income or job. In order to build back better, save jobs and protect our families, we must pass #PaidLeaveForAll �� for good. #CareCantWait

[Family Values @ Work @FmlyValuesWork]

Great insights on who Congress needs to be listening to and investing in as we plan a recovery. TY @DesharaB @TamekaHenryNV

[Tameka Henry @TamekaHenryNV]

To help workers now and after the pandemic, give them paid leave to care for their families https://t.co/1u6bflgNQu

[Paid Leave for All @PaidLeaveforAll]

Women have carried us through this pandemic, at home and on the front lines. They have lost over 5MM jobs, and women of color have suffered the greatest losses. We can and must pass #PaidLeaveForAll to protect working families, save jobs, and create new growth.

[Paid Leave for All @PaidLeaveforAll]

Celebrate Women’s History Month by making new history and finally passing #PaidLeave in the United States. Save women’s jobs. Save women’s lives. #PaidLeaveForAll

[Family Values @ Work @FmlyValuesWork]

Life in America doesn't have to be this 👇🏽 way. The U.S. is the only developed country without guaranteed paid time off from work to care for a loved one or heal from illness. TY @SenGillibrand @rosadelauro for introducing the #FAMILYAct on #FMLA28 #PaidLeave for All NOW!

@TamekaHenryNV @MIWNV When my mother-in-law needed surgery my husband and I moved to MI to help. That's what you do for family. We had to quit our jobs and had trouble finding new ones. Paid leave saves jobs and lives. Include me and millions like me. Pass #AmericanRescuePlan and #FAMILYAct. @CWEALF

[Tameka Henry @TamekaHenryNV]

I have four kids and my husband is disabled. Caring for him meant lost pay and lost jobs. Starting from scratch cost my family $200,000 over a decade. Recently I had COVID and went a month with no wages. We need #PaidLeaveforAll. Pass #AmericanRescuePlan and #FAMILYAct @MIWNV

[nunu @n_o_u_r_i_e]

@TamekaHenryNV @MIWNV We need paid leave that recognizes all families—including my brothers with autism and my Yemeni in-laws. And we need COVID relief that covers all of us, wherever we live or work. Pass #AmericanRescuePlan and #FAMILYAct so we have #PaidLeaveforAll. @rocunited

[vicky @virginiabadill7]

@n_o_u_r_i_e @TamekaHenryNV @MIWNV @rocunited After gallbladder surgery, I had to work too soon; my husband and I had no paid leave. It breaks our hearts to decide between paying expenses or taking care of our son and ourselves. Include me and the millions like me. Pass #AmericanRescuePlan and #FAMILYAct @workersdefense

[Paid Leave for All @PaidLeaveforAll]

THREAD: Paid Leave for All is proud of our Voices of Workers (VOW) group for helping to lead the fight for #PaidLeaveForAll. Their stories matter and make a powerful case for the high cost of inaction on #PaidLeave. We need emergency and permanent #PaidLeaveforAll!

[Deshara Bishop @DesharaB]

@TamekaHenryNV @MIWNV No paid leave means having a miscarriage, losing a job when your child is sick, losing your pay after you test positive for COVID-19. We need emergency relief and a permanent program. Pass #AmericanRescuePlan and #FAMILYAct@United4Justice

[Family Values @ Work @FmlyValuesWork]

Unacceptable! "The lack of strong rules and enforcement has fallen particularly hard on people of color, immigrants and low-wage workers who cannot work remotely and have faced the worst health and economic fallout from the pandemic." https://t.co/uzE8WOqpB2 #COVID19 #Paidleave

As congress considers a new #COVID19 relief package, we need elected leadership to step up for family #caregivers by including #PaidLeave. It's the smart & right thing to do for the millions hurting right now. @JoeBiden @SpeakerPelosi @SenSchumer @SenSanders

[Family Values @ Work @FmlyValuesWork]

Don’t be fooled. If you are eligible for #PaidSickDays due to #COVID19, employers cannot force you to use vacation days or other types of paid time off before allowing you access. Know your rights. #CoronaVirus
