Paid Parental Leave Act Press Conference
June 2009

A former client has been instrumental in achieving passage of the Paid Parental Leave Act in the House of Representatives. A client was actively involved in obtaining support for the measure through both direct lobbying and a grassroots letter-writing campaign organized and managed by Eye on Washington. As a result of these proactive efforts, Janet Kopenhaver received a personalized letter of thanks from Paid Parental Leave Act sponsor Rep. Carolyn Maloney and was a participant in a recent press conference held in the Capitol immediately preceding the vote.
