quickly to pass paid leave for all.
Dear Friend,
Twelve months into this pandemic, 500,000 people lost, and we still
haven’t passed a permanent national paid leave law, even though the
research is abundantly clear that paid leave in a pandemic saves lives and
keeps people in the jobs they need. [1] This is a no-brainer. And yet...
we still don’t have permanent paid leave.
[ [link removed] ]Let Congress and the White House know how important paid leave is to
you and that you want to see permanent paid leave passed right away.
Because the United States has no national paid family leave law, when the
pandemic hit, we were unprepared. It should be a given that we should not
work and spread illness when we are critically sick and recovering, that
we should never have to choose between our families and our paychecks, our
lives and our livelihoods. Our families need and want a sustainable paid
leave policy in place so that families and businesses are never scrambling
for piecemeal solutions when critical illness strikes, a serious family
caregiving crisis arises, or a new child arrives.
We should never be in this situation again.
[ [link removed] ]Add your name now, demanding our members of Congress move quickly to
pass permanent paid leave.
Together we’re a powerful force for our families.
