Small Business Majority submits statement for the record in support of comprehensive PFML for Main Street

On February 25, Small Business Majority submitted a statement for the record in response to a U.S. House Education and Workforce Committee Subcommittee on Workforce Protections hearing titled “Balancing Careers and Care: Examining Innovative Approaches to Paid Leave.” The statement highlights the importance of expanding access to paid family and medical leave (PFML) for small business owners and their employees through the enactment of the Family and Medical Insurance Leave (FAMILY) Act which would create a national PFML program that would guarantee wage replacement for up to 12 weeks.
