John,

A shocking fact: millions of workers in the U.S. lack access to even a
single day of paid leave if they get sick or need to care for a sick
family member. This was true even before the pandemic, and unless we act
now it will be true again after the pandemic as well.

It doesn’t have to be this way.

Over 75% of people support paid family and medical leave and the
Biden/Harris administration has said they are ready for action. We’re on
the cusp of a permanent and inclusive national policy for paid family and
medical leave!

The problem is that not every Democrat in Congress is on board and we need
them all to win. It’s up to us to seize the moment and make it happen.

That’s why we’re working with PL+US, a national campaign to win paid
leave, to launch a big, visible campaign in DC. In April, we’ll welcome
lawmakers back to DC after the congressional recess with a mobile
billboard sporting thousands of photos and messages from their
constituents who support paid leave.

Congress that you care about paid family and medical leave.

Paid leave can aid the country’s recovery from the pandemic. It’s also a
critical investment in the long term for working people, the economy, and
the well-being of our families and communities.

And, in honor of Women's History Month, what better way to recognize the
history and sacrifice of American women in the work place than finally
establishing a nationwide commitment to paid family leave.

Make sure Congress gets the message by sharing your photo.

If you like, you can take a photo with someone you care for like a child
or a parent, or you can handwrite a message. The photo petition website
has several frames you can choose to add like one that says “Parent for
Paid Leave” and another that says “Essential Worker for Paid Leave.”

It’s pretty cool! Check it out and add your message.

I can't wait to see all these incredible faces streaming across this
billboard showing Congress that real people support this campaign. Your
support is critical in making it happen.

Thank you for joining the campaign today.
