UPDATE: Senators were unhappy with how much the House watered down the original paid family leave bill.
“The reality is we passed a really good bill and we got back scraps," Sen. @MrAcostruth. "This is barely an improvement on where we are currently at.” https://t.co/7zG2vIqiTZ

Paid Temporary Caregiver leave extension -- to 7 weeks in Jan and 8 weeks in 2026 - passes Assembly.

Senate wanted to go to 12 weeks, but House scaled back.

Sen. @MrAcostruth calls smaller extension "trash"

DON’T FORGET that gender-affirming care is healthcare, and everyone deserves access to the healthcare they need without having to face down barriers. It’s that simple. 👊🏾

That 1895 rendering of a woman atop the State House inspired the @WomanProjectHQ Education Fund to hire @wemakepretend to provide a “living statue of The Independent Woman” at Kennedy Plaza to mark International Women’s Day in March of this year. https://t.co/HZ15agoGEX
