Senator Murray speaks on the Senate floor ahead of the 30th anniversary of the FMLA

U.S. Senator Patty Murray (D-WA), a senior member and former chair of the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions (HELP), took to the Senate floor to reflect on the 30-year anniversary since the Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA) was signed into law—and to underscore the need to build on the progress the critical legislation ushered in by closing gaps in the law and finally establishing a national paid family leave program.
