Strongly agree

Yes, but the federal government should sponsor this program instead of businesses

Agree

Yes, but only for companies with 100+ employees

Disagree

Yes, but only for sick leave which is unexpected, instead of pregnancy which is a personal choice

Strongly disagree

No, private businesses should decide the amount of competitive incentives they offer to employees instead of a government mandate
