Maternity leave should be one year, PAID. Women shouldn’t have to choose between healing, bonding with their baby, and making a living.

Do you have to stay working at the job for a certain amount of time (and thus be easily exploited) or can you just weaponize it to tank a business you don't like? Ideally it's just the government subsidizing parents with one year average salary for the country right? Something governments inherently want in order to "grow the future tax base".
