Businesses Back Paid Family Leave Proposal in NY
A group of business owners in New York State has come out in support of Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s plan to extend paid family leave to workers caring for a new child or sick loved one.
The American Sustainable Business Council’s New York members announced their endorsement of the proposal on Monday. The measure would grant up to 12 weeks of paid time off and would be funded by a paycheck deduction.

A vote on the proposal is likely to come in the next several weeks.
