Yes, and I would start with the existing program, which had $190 million set aside. In no year has more than 5% of that money been spent. Over the last five years, $600 million should have been provided caregivers and only $26 million went out the door. So the first thing is to work with the program, spend the money that's there, and get it to the people who need it.
If we look at other longer-term improvements, more flexibility. There should be an allowance that allows people to take the time off in chunks of time versus one continuous period.
Also, it is, quite frankly, unconscionable that if you have a dying child you have to sign a document that says you acknowledge your child will die within the year. No parent who wants time off to provide care for that child wants to give up hope.
Improvements to the system are possible, but the first thing is that the money is there, and why isn't it being spent and why isn't it being provided to caregivers?
