Take back you time while you still have some :)



Support the minimum leave amendment that would appear after the minimum wage section in the Fair Labor Standards Act.

The bill would:

* Protect you from having your vacation cut or eliminated by an employer
* Protect you from chronically cancelled vacations
* Protect you from losing vacation time when you change jobs. You will always get three weeks after a year at a job.
* Protect you against retaliation for taking your vacation time, and end the fear of replacement, demotion, or lost promotions when you take all the time in your company policy.
* Provide a pro rata share of the three-week vacation after three months until the one-year mark is reached. For example, after six months, you would get 1.5 weeks off.
