Only four countries have no national law mandating paid time off for new parents: Liberia, Papua New Guinea, Swaziland, and the United States. For more information please see the following online document: http://www.paidfamilyleave.org/pdf/PaidLeaveinStates.pdf.
This chart, from Wikipedia, also delineates the benefits to new parents throughout the world: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parental_leave
I created this petition without any affiliation with any organization or political movement promulgating this issue. I'm just a Father who wants the best for parents who deserve time to bond with their children.
I dream of a better future for the next generation of Americans.
