Equal pay, paid leave, paid sick days, workplace flexibility, and affordable childcare - everywhere I go around the United States, as I talk to working families, these are the issues they raise... We have over 43 million Americans who don't have a single day of sick leave, but everybody gets sick. Everybody's children get sick.

Valerie Jarrett

As I travel around the country, I am inspired by leaders who know that offering paid leave - whether sick time or family leave - isn't just the right thing to do: it's essential to building an economy that works for everyone.

Tom Perez

Workplaces need to respond to the reality of family life in the 21st century, and allowing employees to have seven sick days a year is a bare minimum, the fact that the United States is one of just a handful of countries that does not require paid family or sick leave is nothing short of shameful.

Rosa DeLauro

We need affordable childcare and paid sick leave so workers don't have to choose between their health and their livelihood.

Jackie Speier

The United States is one of the few nations on the planet where paid family and medical leave or earned sick time is not the law of the land.

Tom Perez

Basically, I get paid to be crazy. I get paid to believe I'm someone else, live in a completely false reality, and believe it's real. And that's a little scary. And I do it to the best of my ability. But it's kind of like swimming out to sea. You have to leave enough energy to swim back, and sometimes you get scared you swam too far.

Rachel Miner

Donald Trump

I believe so strongly that you always need to leave things better than you found it.

Mod Sun

Holding onto negativity makes you sick, I strongly believe that. So I release negativity by writing.

Asher Roth

We need a national family leave policy that will allow both men and women to take paid time off from work to care for a newborn or a sick relative.

Lois Frankel

We're the only developed country in the world that doesn't have paid maternity leave. Paternity leave is just as important. Paid family medical leave so that you can take care of a parent, a child, a grandparent, whatever you need to do. I think we're shortsighted when we don't invest in our employees as companies, and as an economy, because we invest in them and they invest back in us.

Sheryl Sandberg

Voluntary paid maternity leave: yes; compulsory paid maternity leave: over this Government’s dead body, frankly. It just won’t happen.

Tony Abbott

There are many ways of supporting gender equality, from something as simple as paid sick leave and flexible work hours to attributing an economic value to all care-giving, and making that amount tax deductible.

Gloria Steinem

I strongly believe that one can't plan one's career. One should grasp an understanding of the direction in which things are moving and then leave it at that.

Antara Mali

We need to do more to support working families, like guarantee access to paid sick and parental leave and make sure every parent has access to quality, affordable child care.

Tom Perez

Yeah, I guess I'm not a particularly religious person, but I do really believe strongly that we all need to believe in something, and that's very personal to each one of us.

Carla Gugino
