Bill to extend six weeks’ paid maternity leave to all state employees draws widespread support; fiscal questions remain
LB 878 would add a statutory six-week paid maternity (and adoption) leave for eligible full‑time state employees; proponents — including the State Troopers Association and women's advocacy groups — said it aids recruitment and retention, while questions focused on the fiscal note, coverage gaps (state troopers and some judicial staff), and operational impacts on small work units.
