Why Take Action?

Network partners have taken action for more than 20 years to build the momentum for care policies. In the two maps below, you can see where the laws exist across the U.S.—and how many workers are actually covered by them. Despite the wins, they reveal a picture of uneven protection, highlighting both legislative progress and the gaps that still leave millions without basic caregiving support. The action you take can change this!

Map 1: Tracks which U.S. states have adopted paid family and medical leave (PFML) and/or paid sick and safe days (PSSD) laws as of June 2025. It highlights whether these laws are mandatory or voluntary, and when they were enacted.

Map 2: Builds on that by showing how many workers are actually covered in each state under these laws—quantifying their real-world impact.
