Summary

The bill creates a non‑lapsible family and medical leave insurance trust fund and defines who can take leave, how much can be taken, and what employers must provide. It adds new definitions (e.g., covered active duty, domestic abuse) and sets employer duties such as posting notices, providing certification guidelines, and prohibiting retaliation. Funding comes from a $258.5 million transfer, with contributions beginning in 2027 and benefit eligibility starting in 2028.
