What's Next for Paid Family Medical Leave in Michigan?

Michigan’s Children President & CEO Matt Gillard welcomes
state Rep. Jasper Martus to the Speaking for Kids podcast to
discuss efforts to advance making paid family medical leave
mandatory in Michigan. The Genesee County Democrat is a point
person in the House on the issue and has introduced a measure
calling for an actuarial cost study to keep the issue moving
forward into the new Legislative year. Lawmakers are expected to
finish the current session next week without action on the
promising bill hailed by family advocates including Michigan’s
Children and favored by Governor Gretchen Whitmer.
