Because of people like you, the push for paid family/maternity/paternity leave has become a national conversation. And people are noticing. States, cities, and businesses across the country are taking action to expand paid leave to help more working families succeed.

Because of you, paid family/maternity/paternity leave is no longer an 'if' question, but a 'when' question.

U.S. Labor Secretary Tom Perez and Senior Advisor to the President Valerie Jarrett have been traveling the country as part of the 'Lead on Leave' tour to highlight the action taking place in many of your communities. They've met with working families, business leaders, community leaders, and elected officials to discuss how we can take the #LeadOnLeave.

As the tour comes to a close, we want to share an announcement on paid family/maternity/paternity leave with you first:

This Monday, June 15you're invited to a Google+ Hangout with Secretary Perez, Senior Advisor to the President Valerie Jarrett, YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki, Molly Moon Neitzel, a small business owner in Seattle, and me. We'll be sharing the latest on the progress we've made and answering your questions about paid leave.

Submit your questions here or send us a tweet using #LeadOnLeave.

Join us Monday, June 15 from 3-3:45 p.m. ET here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GxDbjgyXKVg

Looking forward to you joining us! Together, we are a powerful voice for women, moms, and families!
