Every day, I hear from parents whose lives have been changed by New York’s paid leave policy. Take Lisa Mayer, founder and CEO of Boss Beauties and new mom. After a normal delivery, her baby ended up in the NICU, while Lisa herself endured a life-threatening hemorrhage.

Is there really anything like the feeling of dread you get right before your yearly mammogram appointment? Now, take that feeling and multiply it by 20.

My parents never dreamed of calling Chicago their home, and who could blame them? For two generations, my family lived in Uganda until the dictator Idi Amin shattered their world. An order was issued: All people of Indian descent must leave Uganda within 90 days or face death. My mom, pregnant with my older sister, and my dad came to Chicago with $10 in their pockets. Their hard-earned engineering degrees were no golden tickets in the United States.
