We're excited to see President-elect Biden commit to signing legislation for universal paid sick days and 12 weeks of paid family and medical leave. This would be a huge victory for all Americans as they balance the demands of work and family. 🎉🎉🎉 #PaidLeaveforAll

Families must have the ability to care for themselves and each other. For the economy to safely re-open, consumers must have confidence that workers are not sick, and workers must feel customers are not sick. We all need #paidleave and #paidsickdays

“I study the experiences of working parents in different countries, so friends keep asking me, “Is it this bad everywhere?” My answer is no. Absolutely not.” writes @CaitlynMCollins in this must read piece about US pandemic work- parenting in Harvard Business Review hbr.org/2020/11/the-fr…

“The problem is we now know that thousands of people who have COVID are sick for more than two weeks, some for months,” [...]. “These people need to be able to stay home and recover; that’s in the public interest as well.” #paidleave #PaidLeaveforAll buff.ly/3q1jepl

Now is the time for #PaidLeaveforAll.

Wow! In addition to being a testament to Biden’s character, this video would be amazing to unpack w students Which circumstances made it politically viable for Biden to announce prioritizing of fatherhood over politics? Could a woman politician say that? Then? Now?

The Family and Medical Leave Act has helped many Americans take time off to care for themselves and their families, but it leaves far too many people forced to choose between a paycheck and caregiving. This has to change. We need a national paid family and medical leave program.

Coming to Congress was the first time in a decade or two I didn’t show up pregnant on the first day of the new job. On the 28th anniversary of the Family and Medical Leave Act, we recognize we can and must do more. Paid leave will help working parents and strengthen our economy.

"The burdens of caring for children and keeping a home is still thought to be women’s work and is therefore not valued in America, while also being lauded as some of the most important work performed by people every day." buff.ly/3rAHrnz #Paidleave #Childcare

Biden-Harris are proposing paid family leave to catch the U.S. up to other peer competitive economies. Congress considering 2 proposals. The Better Life Lab's Vicki Shabo breaks it all down for you: New National Paid Leave Proposals Explained newamerica.org/better-life-la… via New America

This is the month moms are told they’re priceless—and they are! But women lost out on $800 BILLION from job cuts and stepping away from careers to care for loved ones, according to Oxfam International. That's why #MarshallPlanForMoms opened MomsDeserveMoreFlowerStore.com, because #MomsDeserveMore.

No secret which side of the debate I come down on: schedule control - giving workers a say in when, where and how work gets down - improves health, wellbeing, productivity, motivation & creates more time and space for care. And it works for all workers - hourly to white collar
