Team — Right now, the state legislature is considering legislation that would expand paid leave across Illinois for hundreds of thousands of workers across the state.

President Biden’s proposed budget includes a national Paid Family Leave program that would guarantee at least 12 weeks of paid family leave in order to take care of a newborn, a sick loved one, or yourself in case of a prolonged illness.

So we want to know — will you add your name to support expanded paid family leave?

Not only will a unified Congress help us expand paid family leave, but we’ll be able to invest and expand affordable childcare options, and save middle and working-class families BILLIONS of dollars.

Thanks for taking a moment to share your input, friend.
