Buttigieg Says the Biden Administration Will Continue to Fight for Paid Family Leave
Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg on Monday said the Biden administration will continue to fight for paid family leave, adding his personal experience taught him that leave is “time to do important work.”
“It’s talked about as time off. It’s time to do work. Good work, joyful work, meaningful work. But it’s time to do important work,” Buttigieg told reporters at the White House.
He said “it’s no secret” how he feels about paid leave, nor how President Biden feels about it.
