#PaidLeave4AllGA

Paid leave is essential for the economic security of all workers and is a policy with widespread bipartisan support, but some politicians continue to resist it at the local, state, and federal level. While many states and local governments have successfully implemented some form of paid leave, millions of workers across the country still face an impossible decision: take care of myself or a loved one and miss a paycheck or go to work. The United States remains the only high-income nation in the world without a national paid leave policy, including parental leave, sick leave, medical leave, or family care leave.

9to5 Georgia and the members of the GA Coalition for Paid Leave are working towards making paid family & medical leave a reality in the state. Effective paid leave policies are not only good for Georgia workers, but they are also great for Georgia businesses and families. Paid leave means that you can care for your kids when schools are closed. You can drive your parent to their next doctor’s appointment. And you have time to recover after being sick. Everyone should be able to do that, without having to choose between their next paycheck or their health & family.
