PL+US (Paid Leave for the U. S. ) is a groundbreaking brand that emerged in 2016 as a time-bound campaign.

With the aim to ensure paid family and medical leave for every working person in the U. S., PL+US has made remarkable progress over the past five years. By partnering with some of the country's largest employers, PL+US has successfully won paid leave for 8.

5 million working individuals, delivering real-life impact for millions of families. In addition to their corporate engagement efforts, PL+US has utilized advocacy and storytelling to shift public understanding and generate widespread support for paid leave. By spotlighting real people and their stories, PL+US has broadened the conversation beyond traditional gender roles and emphasized the broad range of Americans who would benefit from paid leave.

Recognizing the need for political organizing and a policy that works for all, PL+US has ventured outside the conventional paid leave coalition. By spearheading political advocacy, paid media, and a non-traditional legislative approach, PL+US has successfully built a powerful constituency and influenced federal policy. Their efforts have resulted in a federal paid leave proposal passing the U.

S. House of Representatives, bringing the country closer to a historic victory in the fight for paid leave. While their doors have closed in the summer of 2022, PL+US leaves behind a powerful legacy and a profound impact on the national discourse surrounding paid leave
