Supporting Families, Businesses Through Paid Leave for Hardworking Kansans
关于我们
Nothing is more important to Kansans than family. Bonding with a new child or caring for a sick partner or an aging parent—these are some of life’s most important moments. Every Kansan needs to care for a loved one or child at some point in their lives. Despite this universal need, most Kansans do not have access to paid leave. Hard working people lack the stability paid leave would provide in their most desperate moments. The Coalition The Paid Leave for All Kansans coalition is a broad network of businesses, organizations, advocates, and leaders who believe that our families and workers will be more independent and our state more prosperous when we invest in paid leave. Our Priorities No one should be forced to choose between their job and their health or the needs of their family. Yet, every day, Kansans face these difficult decisions. The Paid Leave for All Kansans Coalition is working together on a common sense solution that supports families at critical moments in their lives and strengthens workers and businesses. Our coalition will share the overwhelming benefits of paid family leave and Kansans’ personal experiences with policymakers, leaders, and Kansans across the state.

The FMLA has helped to transform workplaces, but too many people, especially workers of color, are still left behind. Workers of color are less likely to be eligible for FMLA-supported leave and, if they were, many people are unable to take the unpaid leave that the FMLA would provide. Expanding FMLA coverage and strengthening the law’s protections would make sure that these protections are available to all workers and benefit all families. https://lnkd.in/gEWge5_h
