From welcoming a newborn to recovering from an illness, or caring for an aging family member, everyone eventually needs to take time off from work. For many small business owners, there is no support available for them to leave their business or provide that time for their employees. Many of you have been instrumental in the fight for paid leave in your states. Next week, ASBC along with small businesses across the country, and memberships across 7 organizations are joining together to fight for a National Paid Family and Medical Leave insurance program. As we launch Small Businesses for Paid Leave, part of the larger Paid Leave for All campaign, we will kick off with a webinar — specifically for small business owners, to talk through why paid leave is good for small business, how you can get involved and why your voice matters. Join us — and elevate the need for paid leave to a national level: - When: Today at 12PM EST
