Issue Position: Investing in Working Families

Issue Position

Only three countries in the world have no laws guaranteeing paid maternity leave: Lesotho, Papua New Guinea, and the United States. As Delegate, Shelly will work hard to bring paid maternity leave to Virginia so that our working mothers can afford to take time off to spend with their newborns. She will also fight for families' right to paid sick leave, so that everyone can afford to take time off to care for their sick loved ones.
