House adds paid family leave back to bill

(Washington, DC) -- The House is adding paid family and medical leave to the social spending bill again.

Democrats had initially called for 12 weeks of leave but it was cut down to four before being dropped altogether last week. It's reportedly back at four.  

Speaker Nancy Pelosi told colleagues in a letter, admitting there were obstacles ahead in the Senate. It appears the House will still try to vote on the bill and an infrastructure plan this week.
