Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, has written a letter to urge US Congressional Democratic leadership to pass federal paid family and medical leave.
Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, is urging Congressional Democratic leadership to pass federal paid family and medical leave and"ensure this consequential moment is not lost" as Democrats continue to negotiate a deal to pass the Biden administration's social safety net and infrastructure package.
"Paid leave should be a national right, rather than a patchwork option limited to those whose employers have policies in place, or those who live in one of the few states where a leave program exists," she wrote in a letter to Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, published Wednesday by the Paid Leave for All organization.
