house 05/08/2025 - 119th Congress
We are working to expand and clarify family and medical leave rights specifically for military families, ensuring they have access to up to 26 weeks of leave to care for servicemembers and veterans with serious injuries or illnesses. This legislation broadens who qualifies for leave and recognizes a wider range of family and close personal relationships.

Expanding care leave to chosen families is progress, not pending approval from outdated traditions.

Nice idea, but let’s not turn the FMLA into a government nanny state for every distant relative.

Support soldiers, yes—but dragging employers through red tape for ‘close associations’? Hard pass.

Supporting military families is good policy; now let’s watch how it actually plays out in workplaces.

Finally, a win for our military families—because sacrifices don’t stop at the front door.

26 weeks is generous—let’s hope companies don’t turn ‘leave’ into ‘leave you behind.’

This bill tries to balance patriotism with practicality; time will tell if it hits the mark.
