Plain-English Summary
Federal employees would be able to take up to 12 weeks of paid leave per year to care for a new child, a seriously ill family member, or their own serious health condition, while continuing to receive their regular paychecks. The bill would also extend similar protections to federal workers dealing with military family issues and other qualifying life events. This would give federal workers benefits similar to those many private companies already offer their employees.
