We need a national paid family leave policy that guarantees up to 12 weeks of paid leave for all American families to alleviate the undue burden on parents and family members who are in a caretaker role.
Enact a national paid family leave policy guaranteeing up to 12 weeks of paid leave for American families.
Occurrences
Enact Paid Family Leave For All American Families
Evidence
Schiff’s campaign affordability agenda calls for a national paid family leave policy that guarantees up to 12 weeks of leave for all American families.
Schiff’s Senate legislation page lists the FAMILY Act as read twice and referred to the Committee on Finance.
Assessments
Schiff publicly promised to enact a national paid family leave policy with up to 12 weeks of leave, and his Senate activity shows continued support for the FAMILY Act, but the evidence only reaches committee referral and does not show enactment. That is a serious legislative effort, but the promised outcome was not delivered.
