What it does
The FAIR Leave Act would amend the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993 by repealing Section 102(f), which currently limits the amount of leave available to married individuals who work for the same employer. This change would allow both spouses to take the full amount of FMLA leave independently, rather than sharing a combined limit. The bill affects married employees employed by the same employer who seek leave for qualifying family or medical reasons. It was introduced in the House and referred to the Committees on Education and Workforce, House Administration, and Oversight and Government Reform for consideration.
