After multiple surgeries that my wife barely survived, what kind of man WOULDN'T absolutely want to take paternity leave (if he's lucky enough to have access) to be there for his fam? Besides, it it should be available for EVERY American. Not just wealthy CEOs + founders like me.
And while we're on the subject.. there's a black maternal health crisis in the US and COVID19 has only exacerbated it. Shoutout to members of Congress like @replbr who are doing the work to fight + fix this, but there's A LOT to be done. https://www.vox.com/2020/8/10/21336312/covid-19-pregnancy-birth-black-maternal-mortality
thank you to my partner @DoveMenCare for trying to help change the perception of Paternity Leave and joining me early in my fight for #PaidFamilyLeave for all Americans.
