"Look, it’s past time America caught up with the rest of the world on paid leave. And, folks, all this helps families, and it grows the economy. It grows the economy. And we can afford to do it. To put another way, we can’t afford not to do it."--@POTUS whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/…
If we want the best economy in the world, we have to have the best caregiving economy. But the cost of care is too high, and pay for care workers is too low. Our nation’s caregivers are heroes – we need them – and under my budget, they're going to get the dignity they deserve.
Let’s go!! @POTUS @JoeBiden’s promise: “I’ll pass paid leave.” This is what America needs for when a new baby arrives or a serious heath crisis strikes - & this is what most other nations already have. Its time! #TheCareEconomy glamour.com/story/bidens-p…
The United States is the only major economy that doesn't have paid leave, President Biden and Democrats in Congress want to create a future where no one is fired for taking care of a loved one. #CareCantWait

“At some point in our lives we all need care, and women often provide this care in our families...” @wendychunhoon. There is a cost of inaction when it comes to #PaidLeave and care — and women and caregivers are paying it. 19thnews.org/2023/05/caregi…
Paid family and medical leave helps ensure no one has to choose between their job and their family. And in Delaware, it's the law of the land. Learn more at decares.org #PaidLeave @delawarecares
1 year ago today, Governor @JohnCarneyDE signed The Healthy Delaware Families Act into law, establishing an up-to-12-week paid family and medical leave insurance program in Delaware and marking the single largest new employment benefit in modern state history.
One year ago, Delaware became a paid leave state! Starting in 2026, Delawareans will have access to a statewide paid family and medical leave program. Learn more at decares.org #PaidLeave

In Delaware, I passed paid family and medical leave when many thought we’d never get it done. In Congress, I will work alongside @JoeBiden to do the same - and guarantee that no worker in America will be forced to choose between their paycheck and their family.

New @PaidAction polling in @politico: Eighty 👏 five 👏 percent 👏 of voters in battleground states want #PaidLeaveForAll. politico.com/newsletters/we…
From @Eleanor_Mueller First in Shift this morning. It’s not breaking news that paid leave is popular but this is: These are the highest levels of support and intensity we’ve ever seen for the issue, from Gen Z to suburban moms — and this poll was in battlegrounds.
2/3 of battleground voters--including me!--are motivated to vote by #PaidLeaveForAll.
NEW POLLING: Support and intensity levels for paid leave are at an all-time high, across party lines and demographics. 85% of battleground voters want paid family, parental, and medical leave. #PaidLeaveForAll #CareCantWait
