Paid Leave for All
@paidleaveforall.bsky.social
Paid Leave for All is the national campaign of the organizations leading the fight for paid family and medical leave for all working people. #PaidLeaveForAll
“Many women, who bear the brunt of this caregiving, have found it impossible to balance work and taking care of loved ones…an estimated 455,000 women left the workforce, often because they had to care for children and aging parents...it’s bad for the U.S. economy”

What if women were honest about why we're out of the office? | Opinion
What if we were honest about what keeps us from work or what pushes us out altogether? What if we told the real stories behind the auto message?

This incredible team is going to make paid family leave a reality for all Minnesota families starting January 1.
Grateful for their work to make sure Minnesotans get the time off they deserve – whether it be for an illness, a new baby, or a family member in need.
