#PaidFamilyLeave
Perhaps instead of kvetching about birth rates we should finally get serious about taking care of the babies already being born, giving their parents the supports they need to ensure babies have all their basic needs met so they can grow and thrive.

I had seen the picture of Walz getting hugged by kids after he signed the bill guaranteeing breaking and lunch for students in Minnesota, but the actual video is so much more emotional: www.instagram.com/reel/C-VXod6...

I am in a weird mood today. Maybe depressed. Just sick of cruelty and lies and bombings of innocent people. I had all my funny posts ready and recipes ready to go but now doesn’t feel like the right time for some reason. Maybe later.

Here's how we get Medicare for All done:

Make Medicare whole (no one can keep all the parts straight!)
Include vision, dental, and hearing.
Begin extending to more people, starting with children.

We arrive at Medicare for All, which means great Medicare for everyone.

On this day in 1994, the Clinton administration's heathcare reform plan was declared "dead" by Congress.

Over 30 years later, the US is still the only industrialized country without universal healthcare.

This should be a national outrage.

Today the Council adopted my amendment to the FY27 BSA to ensure that 12 weeks of caregiving leave and medical leave are fully restored in 2030.

Paid leave is a lifeline for families and helps small businesses remain competitive – that’s why I will always be a champion for #paidfamilyleave.

If you are NOT for every single one of these issues you don't get to be a democrat. Majority RULES.

AND #California has #PaidFamilyLeave for moms and dads.

Not long enough, but it’s a good start!
As Trump attacks women’s reproductive choices, I signed new bills strengthening California’s nation-leading protections on reproductive rights and maternal health.

HB517 would repeal the Granite State Paid Family and Medical Leave Program, removing critical support from thousands of workers needing time to care for their loved ones without sacrificing their paychecks. #NHPolitics #PaidFamilyLeave #SupportNHFamilies

USA minimum wage $7.25 per hour & AVERAGE restaurant BURGER (no side or drink) = $14

Assuming an 8 hour workday: the worker has to work 25% of his day for PART (not even all) of his lunch.

I'd call that SLAVERY.

DC deserves better than a budget that is balanced on the backs of working families. I will fight for a budget that protects #paidfamilyleave and addresses the affordability challenges families are facing — not a budget that makes it harder for families to get by.

We need national paid family leave in the U.S. to support chest/breastfeeding parents and families.
