Posts - Bill - S 408 Job Protection Act
senate 02/05/2025 - 119th Congress
We are working to pass the "Job Protection Act," a piece of legislation that aims to broaden access to family and medical leave by reducing the eligibility period for employees from one year to 90 days and expanding the leave requirements to cover all employers, regardless of size. Our goal is to ensure that more workers can take the necessary time off without fear of losing their jobs, creating a more supportive and equitable workplace for everyone.
