State Employee Maternity and Leave Amendments

Summary

The bill lengthens postpartum recovery leave for state workers from three to six weeks, adds six weeks of paid adoption leave for children under six, and creates a separate four‑week paid foster‑care leave. It also lets two employees who adopt or foster together share a single leave block, permits intermittent foster leave, and updates the breastfeeding law to include breast‑pump use. The changes apply to state employees and to employees of local education agencies.
