S 400 United States Senate · 119th Congress

Paid Family and Medical Leave Tax Credit Extension and Enhancement Act

S 400 enhances the tax credit for employers that provide paid family and medical leave to their workers. Employers can now choose to calculate the credit based on either wages paid to employees on leave or premiums paid for an insurance policy covering the leave. The bill clarifies that state or local government-paid leave counts toward the leave provided but does not count toward the credit amount, and extends the credit to cover up to six months of leave. Additionally, it requires the Small Business Administration and IRS to conduct outreach to help employers understand and use the credit.
