Died in Committee
Summary
The bill would establish a Kansas paid family leave insurance fund that provides eligible workers and self‑employed individuals with paid leave for bonding, personal or family medical needs, and certain military family situations. Benefits would begin in July 2027 and be paid at about two‑thirds of the worker’s average weekly wage, with a minimum of $100 and a $1,000 cap. Employers and employees would fund the program through payroll deductions, and self‑employed people could opt in for a three‑year term.
