    Newborn family leave needs to be protected federally.

    FTFY, why shouldn’t we try to have both parents around while we’re at it.

      At least 1 month off for both parents immediately after (maybe some weeks before?) birth. Then 1-1 year for each parent.

        I’m from Estonia. Each parent gets 1 month off immediately after (though can be scheduled up to 1 month before due date too, but then you don’t have the month off afterwards

        This is followed by about a year and a half worth of paid days that can be used by either parent and the parent can also work at the same time so they double dip
