Abstract
For many workers, taking time off from work for a serious health condition or to care for a family member’s serious health condition is complicated. Since 1993, the Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA) has provided job protection for workers who take leave. However, not all workers are covered. This Comment looks at where the FMLA comes up short, how some states are providing broader coverage and more robust benefits, and advocates for states to continue improving upon the FMLA baseline.
