After suffering a procedural delay, the paid family leave legislation will soon go to the Senate for a final vote. The Senate already voted once to pass the legislation, but must vote on it again since the Assembly made changes to the bill. If it passes, Corzine is expected to sign the bill into law. Scott Goldstein at NJBiz.com has the news:The paid family leave bill, which would allow private sector and government workers to take six weeks of paid leave to care for newborns or sick family members, is expected to get a Senate vote by the end of next month. Senate President Richard Codey (D-Essex) is planning to add a Senate meeting either this month or next, his office said.
The meeting would include voting on the paid family leave bill and perhaps voting to confirm Gov. Jon Corzine's nominee for treasurer, David Rousseau, Codey's office said. |
