Email Template: Urging Your Legislators to Support Paid Family Leave
Subject: Support Working Families and Advocate for Paid Family Leave
Dear [Senator/Representative],
I hope this email finds you well. My name is [Your Name], and I am a [parent, worker, business owner, concerned citizen] from [Your City, State]. I am writing to urge you to support and advocate for comprehensive paid family leave policies in the United States.
As you know, the U.S. remains the only developed nation without a national paid family leave program, leaving millions of working families without adequate time to care for their newborns, recover from childbirth, or support ill loved ones without risking their financial security. According to research, paid leave improves maternal and infant health, strengthens families, and boosts workforce retention and productivity.
This is an opportunity to enact change that would positively impact millions of families and create a more resilient economy. I hope to see you take a leadership role in pushing for policies that reflect the needs of hard-working Americans. Investing in paid leave is an investment in our nation’s future, one that will benefit workers, businesses, and the overall economy.
Thank you for your time and commitment to serving our community. I look forward to your response.
Best regards,
[Your Name]
