A REQUEST FOR PERSONAL STORIES....
Westchester NOW is a member of the New York State Paid Family and Medical
Leave Coalition, a group that has been working for four years to bring this
important benefit to working New Yorkers. The time has come to convince our state
senators that this is an important issue worthy of their consideration; the
assembly has already approved a bill providing paid leave to workers.
Are you a person who needed to take a leave under the Family and Medical
Leave Act, but was unable to do so because the leave was unpaid? What was the
impact on your family? Send your comments to Westchester NOW, PO Box 1135,
White Plains, NY 10601, or e-mail WestNOW@aol.com. Your name will be kept
confidential. Your stories will help us personalize this issue as we continue to
work on the legislative front to make this benefit a reality for New Yorkers.
Thank you.
