Who has a stake in passing paid leave?

Paid Leave for All was founded by an exec board & growing steering committee: @ABetterBalance @TheArcUS @ASBCouncil @ncbcp_bwr @CaringAcrossGen @amprog @CLASP_DC @ceprdc @popdemoc @FmlyValuesWork @mainstreetweets (wait, there's more. 1/x)

[Paid Leave for All @PaidLeaveforAll]

We wish everyone freedom to work, care, and live lives of their choosing, and we will keep working until the unfinished business of paid leave and a care economy in our country is complete. 🇺🇸

“What would you need to be satisfied with your life? Our research reveals that the answer to that question is not simply about money but as one of a handful of enablers to time—or put differently to a life with enough room for the things that matter most.”

Advocates were in Harrisburg last week to call on the Senate to pass the PA Family Care Act, which would establish a statewide paid family & medical leave program. @RepOMara called on the Senate and said the House is “ready and willing” to make this a law

[Rep. Don Beyer @RepDonBeyer]

We introduced the bipartisan Comprehensive Paid Leave for Federal Employees Act because federal employees deserve paid family and medical leave. It's time to make it happen.

💪 What a night with @dhuckelbridge and so many local leaders to watch the screening of Lifelines. I will always be a partner in Congress in fighting for families including supporting paid family and medical leave. The work continues.

NEW from @newamerica.org:

Most Americans underestimate the cost of care, overestimate public investment, and don’t know how families find, manage, or pay for care across the lifespan (neither do we!)—and say government should play a role. https://t.co/LtGCWaeH0b

[MomsRising @MomsRising]

You shouldn't have to win the "boss lottery" to care for a sick loved one or a new baby. PA is closer than ever to passing the Family Care Act for paid family & medical leave! Let's build the MOMentum. Tell PA Senators to vote YES: https://t.co/yfyxwCG2IQ #PaidLeavePA

[Paid Leave for All @PaidLeaveforAll]

The US has the highest parental distress levels, the most expensive childcare, and the weakest paid leave provisions of any peer nation. Parents need #PaidLeave to care for their families without financial stress. https://t.co/Cf1P1OGJrz

🌈 This #PrideMonth, we're shining a light on the importance of paid sick AND safe days. Everyone deserves the right to care for their health and safety. #PaidLeave #Equity

[Paid Leave for All @PaidLeaveforAll]

Women spend an average of more than 280 hours each on caregiving annually, equating to more than $682 billion in unpaid care work – $4,800 for each woman in the U.S. #CareCantWait  https://t.co/kjpOE9OU5R

State #PaidLeave programs now cover one-third of men in the private sector. But we need a federal prgram to guarantee #PaidLeaveForAll. https://t.co/Wkq8XoEDLB

[Main Street Alliance / Main Street Action @mainstreetweets]

New report out this week from our friends @PaidLeaveforAll, with some good news for Father’s Day!

Dads are coming close to, or even exceeding, the rates of moms taking time off to bond with their new children in most state paid leave programs.

In California alone, bonding claims from men have grown 470% since the state program's launch.

Progress continues.

This month the Louisiana legislature passed SB 157, a bill that would provide six weeks of paid parental leave to public school employees. #PaidLeaveForAll

[Paid Leave for All @PaidLeaveforAll]

Today, we released the first comprehensive report of paid leave progress since the pandemic and Build Back Better, and we counted substantive wins in a stunning 42 states and DC. The momentum is growing, and a federal policy is next. #PaidLeaveForAll https://t.co/vA3yDtu2Dt

[Rep. Arvind Venkat, MD @RepVenkat]

Paid family leave is needed in PA - for the health of ourselves, our families, our communities, and our Commonwealth. I was proud to stand with colleagues and advocates to urge the passage of the Family Care Act, bipartisan legislation to establish a paid family leave program.

[Senator Jennifer Boysko @JenniferBoysko]

Part 1 of my remarks from the Paid Family & Medical Leave bill signing ceremony. Watch as I share why this legislation has been such an important fight for Virginia's families and workers.

.@Rep_McBride says Delaware’s 12-week paid leave program is a “triple win” — helping workers care for their families, helping businesses retain talent, and strengthening the economy.
