MACOMB, Illinois (NEWS3) – The federal government has been debating in recent months whether to implement the Paid Family Leave into President Joe Biden’s legislative agenda with very little success.

“I don’t know what I really would have done,” Western Illinois University Recruitment, Retention, and Admissions Coordinator Annelise Land said. “You know, you don’t know which way is up. When you have your baby. I had been up for three days straight.”
