Gov. Gavin Newsom signed a bill that will boost the current family leave program, enabling lower-income workers to regain up to 90% of their income. The boost will begin in 2025.
Higher-income people have been more likely to take time off. From 2017 to 2019, leave claims by workers making less than $20,000 a yearfor all other workers — increasing the most for those making $100,000 or more, according to the Employment Development Department.
The Employment Development Department told the Legislature in a Senate floor analysis that this would increase funding for the program, but it “would not offset the additional benefit payments over time.”Kiera Schminke, a Carlsbad mother of two, learned of paid family leave when she was pregnant with her first daughter seven years ago.
She worked until her delivery date, took two weeks of vacation after giving birth, then returned to work. Her doctor told her the stress was negatively affecting her milk supply, said Schminke, a breastfeeding advocate.
