> In America, I don't see any legislation for paid maternity and paternity leave.
Democrats led west coast and northeast coast states, and Colorado and Illinois, have 18 to 20 weeks of paid maternity leave and 12 weeks of paid paternity leave (or leave for taking care of anyone in general).
On the federal level, it was most recently proposed by Democrats in the Build Back Better bill at the end of 2021, but it did not pass.
