Obama Administration (endorses) Thu Nov 06 13:50:51 -0800 2008

The FMLA covers only certain employees of employers with 50 or more employees. We will expand it to cover businesses with 25 or more employees. We will expand the FMLA to cover more purposes as well, including allowing workers to take leave for elder care needs; allowing parents up to 24 hours of leave each year to participate in their children’s academic activities; and expanding FMLA to cover leave for employees to address domestic violence.

By doing so, you will drive most small business out of business, thereby leaving their employees without jobs from which to take leave.

White House 2 is a multi-partisan network of 11589 citizens imagining how the White House might work if it was run completely democratically by thousands of people over the internet. It's free and all U.S. citizens can join.

We're setting priorities, collaborating on policy, and creating a massive database of 2874 talking points covering all sides of every important issue facing our country. Watch the video intro.

Getting involved is easy and fun. Just join and start setting your priorities, like a todo list. The more people who endorse a priority, the higher it rises in the charts. The more people who join the network, the more clout we will have with the President and the media.
