I agree with the posts which point out the downside of this tax paid gift to the army of federal workers. They already have a three day weekend for every national holiday, along with a generous pay, medical care, annual and sick leave package. All of this is paid for by tax payers who themselves will be working to pay for parental benefits which are not part of their employment benefits. Non govt employees will be working to pay for a category of workers of any sex who claim to fit the parameters outlined in this bill. A non govt employee will still be hiring help for their same circumstances. This is wrong.
