Plain-English Summary

The FAMILY Act would create a national paid family and medical leave program that allows workers to take time off for major life events—like having a baby, caring for a sick family member, or recovering from their own serious illness—while receiving partial income replacement. Workers and employers would contribute to this program through small payroll deductions, similar to Social Security. This would give millions of American workers access to paid leave without having to choose between their paycheck and caring for themselves or their families.
