Tobias Read for Governor: Wrote a Letter with 16 Other State Treasurers

Oregon

ORGANIZATIONS IN THIS STORY

The United States is the only country in the developed world that doesn’t have a national paid family medical leave program.

The only one.

Our unpaid leave program is the shortest guaranteed leave in the developed world.

That’s why I wrote a letter with 16 other State Treasurers calling on Congress to pass a paid family medical leave program now.

Here in #Oregon, I’m proud that our state has joined a handful of others in creating a state-level leave program. Our working families deserve the security of guaranteed paid leave when they need it, wherever they live.

Many companies already offer this essential benefit, but there are many small businesses that can’t afford to offer paid leave themselves. That’s what makes a federal guarantee so important.

Will you join me and my colleagues around the country in calling on Congress to implement paid family leave for all? We can’t wait any longer to do what we know is right.
