[quote=Anonymous][quote]tl;dr: I'm trying to come up with wording to make the bill more lenient and give at least some leave to babies born between October 1, 2019 and September 30, 2020.[/quote] Why? I'm genuinely asking. I strongly support family leave and wish the bill had been more expansive. But if you tie it to birth date, there will always be a cutoff and there will always be people who missed it. I think that if we're coming up with things Congress should have done then one extra day of paid leave for an Oct baby is an oddly narrow focus. For example, they could have created a new category of earned family leave (earned per pay period and carried like sick leave) to deal with family stuff of all kinds, in addition to 12 weeks parental leave starting in FY21. People could have that family leave advanced to them if they are delivering before the new parental leave starts. [/quote]
