The Family and Medical Insurance Leave (FAMILY) Act was reintroduced in Congress in 2021 and is known as S. 463 and H.R. 1185. The Act has been introduced repeatedly during legislative sessions for the past 7 years but has yet to progress.
The FAMILY Act strives to create paid time off at a portion of previous wages—in contrast to the current Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA), which provides only unpaid time off.
