Ohh wow 60 percent for 6 weeks that's totally enough to care for a newborn since at 6 weeks it should be out the door and working.

I'm happy for SOME movement but we are so fucking far behind every other country for what we offer to people trying to create families.

A rough C-section recovery is more than 6 weeks. Average is 6 weeks.

With this proposal we’re basically saying take the minimal time you need to be able to work again. What about being with your newborn and not having your life destroyed by the stress and transition on top of postpartum.

If we give a shit about families at all 6 weeks is a joke.
