The first item on the public policy agenda of Take Back Your Time
(http://www.timeday.org/) is:
"Guaranteeing paid leave for all parents for the birth or adoption of
a child. Today, only 40% of Americans are able to take advantage of
the 12 weeks of unpaid leave provided by the Family and Medical Leave
Act of 1993."
The web page prominently features a link to "The Motherhood Manifesto:
What America's Moms Want And What To Do About It"
Of course TBYT is neither particularly male nor leftist.
That is probably to TBYT's advantage.
