In partnership w/ @CELA_Lawyers @LegalAidAtWork we are proud to cosponsor #AB518 & #AB524 introduced by @BuffyWicks which will ensure that millions of #FamilyCaregivers are protected against discrimination & workers can afford to take leave to care for #ChosenFamily!

A thread🧵 Family Caregiver Anti-Discrimination Act (#AB524) will prohibit employers from discriminating against employees based on their status as a #FamilyCaregiver.

Basically, your work cannot fire, demote, refuse to hire you because of your family responsibilities.
