Paid family leave bill to be addressed in budget {KLP Note....Of course the Libs won't admit it, but this will truly loose jobs and employers from the State that intends to implement this. And as this article states, Gregoire doesn't believe in things being visible....but rather "spring it on everyone after the gate is closed". Already employees get 2 weeks of vacation a year, between 8-10 paid Holidays, at least 5 days or much more sick leave.....and now have unpaid Family leave. Of course, Mr. Employer, if the job is important at all, must hire a temp worker to try to help.... BUT NOW, Gregoire is going to outdo OBAMA before OBAMA does.....PAID FAMILY LEAVE for up to 3 months PER YEAR, and it is possible to use it EVERY YEAR....will collapse the new small business engine that is the growth arm of this Country. PLUS, more and more taxes because ALL government workers will have this of course.] seattletimes.nwsource.com
