Pennsylvanias lawmakers are making strides towards paid parental and medical leave, with the Democratic House passing a bill for twelve weeks of leave. The Republican Senate has also shown bipartisan support, with a key committee chair sponsoring his own version. The main debate revolves around who should pay for the leave, with the House bill amended to drop employee contributions and reduce leave from twenty to twelve weeks, while adding grants for small businesses. Supporters believe this version balances worker needs with business flexibility, and with Senate momentum, paid leave could soon become law in Pennsylvania.
