Dear ,

Today, we hand delivered paid leave petitions on Capitol Hill -- with our friends at the 1,000 Days campaign -- to commemorate the 23rd anniversary of the Family and Medical Leave Act.

Together, we collected more than 230,000 signatures urging Congress to prioritize paid family and medical leave by passing the FAMILY Act. 

It was extraordinary, and a huge shoutout goes to 1,000 Days and its Facebook activists for raising so much awareness!

If you'd like to stand with us and show your support for paid leave, use WeTweet.org/leave to tweet your members of Congress. And be sure to sign up for our Thunderclap.

On behalf of the National Partnership and 1,000 Days, thank you for joining our fight to make America more healthy, fair and family friendly.

Thanks for all that you do.

Debra Ness
President

P.S. We just released new national poll results confirming that nearly four out of five voters think it's important for elected officials to update the law to guarantee access to paid family and medical leave.
