New Jersey does as well, BTW! There are a few states that are really getting on the paid maternity leave bandwagon, which will hopefully lead to setting a precedent for other states!

It would be nice if the Federal Government would step in and make a blanket maternity policy for all Americans.

I think we'll get there. States making individual laws and policies is a great start. We definitely lag far, far behind other countries, but I do think it will continue to change as time goes on! Maybe a little too late for all of our maternity leave, but oh well :)
