Daily Document Update: HR Compliance Library, ?45,923, Re-introduced FAMILY Act would create universal, gender-neutral, national paid family and medical leave program - PROPOSED LEGISLATION, (Feb. 22, 2019)
Representative Rosa DeLauro (D-Conn.) and Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-N.Y.) on February 12 re-introduced the Family and Medical Insurance Leave Act (FAMILY Act), H.R. 1185, to create a universal, gender-neutral, national paid family and medical leave program. Proponents of the legislation observed that the United States is the only industrialized country that does not guarantee its workers some form of paid leave. According to recent studies, the lack of access to paid family and medical leave costs nearly $21 billion that otherwise could be spent on housing, child care, food, education, or other everyday items.
