Carolyn Maloney actually said...

"It's well past time for the United States to enact a national comprehensive paid family and medical leave program."

"I am honored to be convening today's hearing, my very first as chairwoman of the Committee on Oversight and Reform."

"Right now, we are one of only two nations in the world that does not provide our workers with any form of paid family or medical leave."

"We need to alleviate the economic insecurity of middle-class families, of working people."
